There should be a fence for many reasons. Dogs, human predators, to keep kids securely in the playground. Our schools have many special needs kiddos and not enough staff to properly watch them. A lot of these kids can take off running with no notice. That playground borders a fairly busy street which is just asking for trouble.

The owners of the dogs have the majority of the fault, but there’s no reason, other than negligence, for the school to not have a fence around the playground.

What if the dogs had attacked in front of the school when kids were waiting in the bus line? Should there be a fence and a gate at the driveway to keep everything out? Better yet, let's build all schools with a moat and drawbridge. One way in, one way out. 10 foot concrete walls with armed guards posted at each corner so nothing gets in.
