Police exaggerating school gang problem
Regarding the article, "Gang activity evident in local schools" (Oct. 26):
As a teacher at Aycock Middle School, I was baffled to see our name mentioned in the article. Though I am certainly aware that gangs do exist, in my three years at Aycock I have seen no evidence of them in our school. What I have seen is a school honored as one of the 15 most-improved schools in Guilford County, classrooms with students and teachers using our many new computers, a premier drum line, a principal nominated for Principal of the Year, and, most of all, a caring faculty and staff that is second to none. The only "13" I'm aware of is the age of many of our students.
