LAS VEGAS, Nev. – More than two dozen seventh-grade boys were suspended from a Las Vegas middle school for organizing a fight club in the school bathroom and taking bets on the bouts.

At least one parent told KSNV her son was suspended from Tarkanian Middle School for 10 days, and must also serve nine days of in-house suspension, for participating in the fight club.

Clark County School District officials told the news site a teacher discovered videos of the before- and after-school fights in the school bathroom and alerted administrators, who investigated the situation.

Officials contend videos of the fights show male students punching and kicking one another, but none have been seriously injured.

According to KTNV:

The fight ring had been apparently operating at least a couple months before it was discovered.

Students told 13 Action News this all started with a Snapchat group among some 7th graders. They would place bets on fights that would happen before and after school in the bathroom.

CCSD did not say exactly how many students were suspended. CCSD had also said 18 students were involved before saying they are not sure how many students were involved in the fight ring.

Students and parents told KSNV about 25 students were suspended for fighting or recording the fights.

“Boys will be boys … but it’s kind of shocking,” Tarkanian parent Kimmie Ott said. “I think it puts a little fear.

“Nobody likes to be bullied and pushed into a situation,” she said. “As parents, I think all of our kids deal with it a little bit.”

Several parents told KSNV they’re disappointed that the fighting occurred for so long with school officials unaware of the situation.

“It’s bad. Number one, you would think they have a better monitoring system,” said Gary Gatrell, who has two daughters in the school. “Are there not cameras in the hallways?”

Gatrell said the fight club makes him worry about his daughters’ safety at school.

“She could be at the wrong place at the wrong time,” he said. “There could be a fight in the hallway and she could be walking by as its coming out. She could get hurt that way.”

Ott said she believes it’s up to both parents and school officials to keep a closer eye on students to prevent similar problems in the future.

“I believe we have to be more proactive as parents and kind of double check that we are communicating with our kids,” she said.

KTNV reports the school’s investigation into the fight club is ongoing, and officials said Clark County School District Police will review the case for possible criminal charges.
