Gilbert H. Hood Middle School
Richard: As a parent who's child was assaulted and all they... got is an in-school suspension so far... I think the teachers and staff are useless. My question is where were the teachers and staff?????? if it wasn't for the Derry Police Department I don't think anything would have been done.
