There was an active shooter at a middle school about 20 minutes away from my school today. Thankfully, the only person who was injured was the suspect. The shooter was not able to get in the school.
A lot of people I work with live in the city and have kids who go to school there. A former teammate works there.
There were kids who were outside for PE, who fled to nearby businesses.
My kids were out at recess when it happened, so we called everyone in. They didn't know why. Some second graders that I had last year asked me shortly after during lunch why we came in. I lied and said I wasn't sure, I just heard the announcement like they did. They're smart enough to know something happened. It was an awful feeling.
A coworker has a niece and nephew who were in the middle school. She was sharing some things with me, including how her niece texted her mom, "Active shooter. I love you."
The kids who were inside are still locked down in their schools. The reunification process is just beginning now.
It was a tough day for myself to process it. I can't imagine being those who actually lived it. I imagined it being my students and the kids I love. My heart breaks just thinking about it.
I made sure to tell my students I love them as they were leaving today, and I checked in with my former teammate who works in the district.
But through everything, I'm so thankful everyone is safe.
Thank you for thinking about me. Luckily I live further north than that so I wasn’t close. Strangely though around the time it happened my student teacher and I were talking about what to do if that shooting event would occur where we are teaching.I honestly thought about @PUSH and @ajrwdwgirl when I saw the shooter story yesterday. While glad neither of your schools were involved a very scary and traumatizing situation, nonetheless.

I'm fine. My kids were fine. One girl came in and started talking about it, and put up her fingers like they were a gun and pretended to shoot. I stopped that right away and said we weren't going to talk about it, because it might make others feel scared, and it's not something to joke about.@PUSH , just checking in -- how are you doing today? (And how are the kids in your class, after yesterday's news.)
