Updated Feb 15, 2021;
The Pennsylvania Department of Education’s annual Safe Schools report for the 2019-20 school year showed a noticeable drop in reported arrests.
Districts are required to submit their misconduct reports, both criminal and academic infractions, to the state every year. Reporting sometimes changes from year-to-year, but no changes were made last school year.
Last year, the top three criminal reasons why students were in trouble statewide were:
Possession, use, or sale of tobacco or vaping 8.34 percent
Fighting 8.14 percent
Minor altercation 5.42 percent
Here’s a list of the schools that had the largest number of arrests, and the crime that was most common at each school.

TOBYHANNA As festive holiday music played in the background, prominent members of the Latinx community with the help of the Three Wise Men handed out toys to the children of Monroe County.
The drive-thru event, in honor of Día de los Reyes Magos and sponsored by the local chapter of the Federation of Latinos for Education about the Cultures of Hispanic America (FLECHA) was held Jan. 9 at the Mountain Center in Tobyhanna.
