I am sadden to say that a local principal was shot and killed this morning by an 8th grade student. I work at a school district about 20 minutes away and we were on lockdown all day long. This is a student who threatened to bring a gun to school and kill someone, but no other students that he told thought he was serious and are regretting not telling an adult today. Here's the link to the story.

Please, please talk to your children about reporting things like this. It's always terrible, but when it hits close to home it makes a bigger impact. A boy my son has played basketball against since he was in 3rd grade was near the shooter when it happened. Seeing him being quoted in the newspaper has really hit me hard.
Please pray for all those involved, I know I will.
