You and your peers shouldn’t have to go through this. Please take advantage of resources if you are feeling any sort of trauma from what happened today.

Seriously, this itself was traumatic. There is nothing wrong with talking to someone about it.

As a central Catholic student, I also agree. Easily the scariest moment of my life. I was in the library and they made us walk out with our hands on our head with guns pointed at us. I feel the most for the teachers, they were devastated. Some teachers and students were take into interrogation if they weren’t in a classroom when authorities went into the building. Thank god nothing happened.

I'm so sorry you and your teachers and families experienced this. It's absolutely devastating. Take advantage of whatever resources that are out there if you need to talk or vent, now or 6 months from now.

Appreciate the kind words. Definitely a little shaken up. I feel the worst for the teachers. They looked like ghosts and shouldn’t have to be in charge of things like that. Rumor has it some were pinned to lockers and held at gunpoint since they weren’t in a classroom and had to be treated as suspect

I go to central. I saw an assault weapon for the 1st time today. I though to myself,”Why do we let American citizens have weapons like that?”

We need you and all of your peers to save us. As soon as you can, vote, talk to your friends, get them to vote. I am putting all of my eggs in the basket of the youth. Only you know what living in this country right now really feels like as it pertains to this type of gum violence.
