My daughter received an email right after the shooting from their Prairie (College Community Cedar Rapids) schools reassuring that their kids were safe and the shooting had occurred at the similar sounding Perry schools. And y grandson said that again in class they reviewed and had shooter drills.
Thank you, Barry. And thank you for calling out the republican voters who continue to elect people who have shown over and over again that they have no interest in reforming the gun laws in our country. After Sandy Hook it seemed that an honest effort was being made for background checks before people could purchase a gun and nothing, nothing happened. I thought if we cannot pass something as innocuous as background checks after 20 first graders and 6 teachers were slaughtered in their classrooms 11 days before Christmas nothing is ever going to change because way too many (republican) legislators on every level of leadership are cowards.

Good work by the school. They have been thinking ahead and practicing, too, which is good, but sad that it is necessary and now routine.

Exactly.
Thank you, Barry. As a parent and as retired teacher, I thank you.
This is tragically accurate. 💔
