September 3 at Westwood Hills Elementary School is a day that will be forgotten by most. But yesterday, a forced entry and two shooting occurred. Yes, two.
The news uses "they" to identify one injured teacher. "They" is plural. Confusing use of pronoun in a very serious situation. PC anyone? Did the news mean the shooter also with the use of "they"?
Luckily, not a physically life threatening injury to the teacher. Do some follow up on that concept.
Per the shooter: The police say "no longer a threat" meaning dead. PC anyone or something else? Again, talking points on sheets of paper.
I will give 72 hour rule but question early. The Superintendent was visibly shaken as can be expected. He did seem sincere and scared.
It appears lock down protocol was observed and police called. This still got to the recovery stage with one dead body.
It is only September. Are you ASKing at your school.

So many channels carried this news, even David Muir led with it.
If there has been a close call or worse, like this event, are you asking follow up questions. Are you satisfied with the answers or is it easier not to ASK. Even if it was last year, ASK.
As Dr. Stephens said years ago, "it is not if, it is when".
Check the websites and social media of your schools. Check board meetings and the minutes.
