UPPER DARBY, Pa. - Upper Darby High School is making some changes after the school year got off to a rocky start."We’ve had more emergency situations in the first month of school here than we’ve had in a long time," says Superintendent Dr.
Daniel McGarry.Last week alone the high school evacuated after a student set a paper towel roll on fire. Dr. McGarry says a handful of students refused to evacuate and were disrespectful to some first responders.The next day, the district says there was a fight between a group of girls that led to their parents fighting.
A lockdown ensued when the brawl spilled into a hallway and knocked down a hand sanitizer station. A teacher thought the sound was a gunshot.
