The worst that happened is two guys got in a fight and it blew over the next day.
If I had kids I wouldn't send them to any North American public school. Private school, with a dress code, all the way.

I went to a school like that and were still some kids girls and boys that were picked on by the whole class with exception of me...
They were driving this one girl insane by putting gum in her hair and spitting and putting boogers in her food. It was pretty bad and they all did it and thought it was ok. My buds kept telling me to join them in the prank of the day against this girl and I always tried to stop em but many times without success.
I think the best idea is to keep a close eye on your kid and talk to them make sure that they can stand up for themselves.
