Click here for the latest incident, which comes three days after Enloe's PTSA had a meeting on school safety. It's the latest in a recent series of assaults and robberies that have plagued Enloe, leading to extra police and school security.

Raleigh police say they'll beef up patrols even more after today's incident. They say they'll increase patrols of the area both before and after school.

Enloe High School officials are saying there's no connection between the cancellation of the Homecoming Dance and pep rally and a gang-related fight earlier this month.

On Sept. 11, six Enloe students were arrested after a series of fights at school that Raleigh police have labeled as gang-related. It was on the minds of some Enloe students when it was announced Thursday that the dance was canceled.

Enloe Principal Beth Cochran said the Oct. 4 dance was canceled strictly because not enough tickets were sold. She said only 180 tickets were sold instead of the 300 needed to break even.

As noted in today's article by Thomasi McDonald, Wake school officials are trying to downplay the recent highly publicized cases of school violence. They're arguing that violence has actually decreased in recent years.

Anthony Pecoraro, a school district critic, disagrees.

Del Burns is no longer the highest-paid superintendent in the state.

The Charlotte Observer is reporting today that Charlotte-Mecklenburg Superintendent Peter Gorman got a $18,200 bonus and $7,150 raise on Tuesday. That lifts Gorman's total package to $320,350, above the $312,790 that Burns got earlier this month.

Gorman also got a perk that Burns doesn't have. At Gorman's request, he got a new clause in his contract promising to provide “reasonable security measures” to him and his family in case of “public controversy” or any other reason.
