BOHEMIA, N.Y. – A heated school board meeting nearly boiled over as parents shouted at each other, school board members and administrators.

The Connetquot school board met Wednesday to try to deal with a racial tension-fueled brawl between students that occurred off campus and was captured on cell phone video.

“How would you want your kid like that!” one parent shouted at the school board about an injured student, ABC 7 reports.

“Sit down! You don’t have the mic she has the mic,” the school board president responded.

“I am one of the kids that got brutally beaten with brass knuckles. The day after this fight I got a voicemail from anonymous of a box cutter that I was stabbed with opening and closing, this is not over this is continuing. What are you guys going to do about this? Because I’m terrified now. And why am I suspended? Why am I suspended for saving my friend’s life?” a student said.

Cell phone video captured students brawling at the Ronkonkoma industrial park on Long Island. Some of the students came armed with baseball bats, knives and brass knuckles, according to NBC 4.

Jenn DiMaggio says her sophomore son, Nick Abrahamsen, sustained the worst injuries. He’s now had “several surgeries to insert metal plates into his broken jaw.”

“It’s difficult for Nick. He’s a 15 year old. You know a lot of things are going to change now in his world because of this,” she tells ABC 7.

She adds the tensions have been brewing since the start of the school year.

“This situation has been going on since September. These two groups of boys, my son and his friends and the other group share a lunch period. It’s been going on all year long between the groups of boys.”

Little was resolved at Wednesday’s school board meeting.

“If we have no respect, we have nothing! It starts right here, and right there, you’re the parents,” a school board member lectured to the audience.

“High school administrators and educators will remind, and continue to educate, all of our students to not participate in any silent, verbal or physical action which may encourage conflict among the student population. We encourage all parents/guardians to speak to their children as well. We will continue to be vigilant in regards to maintaining the health and safety of our students, faculty and staff,” the school district said in a statement.
