I'm a parent at I I'm a parent of a student at this school. The school is fine. It's the children . This could have happened at any school. The gun was found by security before entering the school. Be grateful they did their jobs and protecting my child
My child will not be going to that school
This school is literally blocks from me and it just seemed like since I’ve been in this area it’s always something going on up there. My child will most definitely not go to the high school when he graduates thank God, the staff jumped in quick for the safety of everyone really sad that schools are not safe for our children.
