There is a volunteer firehouse just adjacent to that school,
and that is where teachers were told
to take the children just as soon as they could.
Are there families there who don't know where their children are?
There are still families here
who do not know where their children are.
And they're not being told anything.
You could feel it. You could feel the emergency in the air.
You could feel panic.
There was all this murmuring going on, The principal was shot.
"There's a couple of shooters. There's kids in a bathroom."
There was a lot of little snippets of information,
but they hadn't heard anything about kids at that point.
And then there was the room with the parents waiting for their kids.
We just kind of waited.
And then, they brought the children out
and it was heartbreaking to see them.
They were all holding hands in a line.
And I saw my Kyle come.
And true to his personality,
I think he was skipping and holding somebody's hand.
And he said, "Mom, I didn't cry, I didn't cry."
And his teacher came behind.
And she had a wild look on her face
and she said, "They heard it all." She said, "They heard it all.
"They heard the guns, they heard the screaming,
"but they heard it all."
And then, you look over where the first graders are
and there are so many parents with no children.
And there was that feeling of, of "Where are their kids?"
And then I saw Mark, and there was no Daniel.
Then, the Governor came up and said,
"We regret to let you know that
20 children were shot and killed in the school,
as well as six educators.
And I tell you, the room erupted.
It will forever...
Forever be in my mind.
