Orange County Fire Rescue responded to Windermere High School Friday, Dec. 2, following a fight between two female students on campus.

The department responded to check on the condition of one of the students involved in the altercation. That student is expected to be OK, Principal Andrew Leftakis said.

"These behaviors are unacceptable and are not consistent with our expectations and school culture," he said. "As a result, the appropriate discipline will be handed out according to the Code of Student Conduct for those students who lead, incite and engage in disruptive behavior. The safety of our students and staff is always my top priority.

"Parents, please talk with your student regarding your expectations as it relates to their behavior," Leftakis said. "In addition, students who record or post video of such behavior may also face disciplinary consequences."
