Union High School altercation involves students, parents, and multiple fights

The Union Public Schools Board Meeting held on July 14, 2025, focused on a recent altercation involving students at Union High School, highlighting the school's response and disciplinary actions taken.

During the meeting, Assistant Principal Brent Robinson provided a detailed account of the events surrounding a fight that occurred on school grounds. The incident began when Officer Hall reported that a student, Aiden Gordon, was attempting to enter the school with his brother, who is not a Union High School student. Principal Robinson intervened to prevent their entry, as only enrolled students are permitted on campus.

The situation escalated when Mrs. Gordon, Aiden's mother, arrived at the school, visibly upset about her son being attacked. As tensions rose, Aiden and his brother confronted other students, leading to a physical altercation. Principal Robinson and Officer Hall attempted to separate the fighting students, but Aiden resisted commands to let go of another student, resulting in further intervention from school officials and police.

The investigation revealed that Aiden's brother initiated the second fight outside the school, which involved students who were not part of the earlier incident. Following the altercation, students involved were taken to the nurse's office for evaluation, and statements were collected by the Tulsa Police Department.

The meeting concluded with discussions about the disciplinary measures for Aiden, which initially included a one-year suspension. Further details regarding the disciplinary process were expected to be addressed in subsequent discussions.

This meeting underscores the challenges schools face in managing student behavior and ensuring safety on campus, as well as the importance of clear communication and protocols during incidents involving students.
