Lock Down
Today at school we were put in lock down for about 15 minutes. My heart races when things like this happen. Guess one of our "not so smart" students called 9-11 with their cell phone and told the police that they were in a dangerous situation in a classroom. This student had another "not so smart" student call too to say that they were in a hostage situation in another classroom. The police instantly went into a possible school shooting mode. An announcement came over the loud speaker for the teachers to do a shelter in place and lock down the classroom. We did not hear the announcement in the girls locker room but one teacher on the boys side did. On our side of the locker room we had just dismissed the girl's to go to their next class. Should have seen us, we had to go out and run and yell at the girls to get back in the locker room and to get anyone else inside who was out and about. The girls were completely confused yet we kept them calm. Thankfully the school did not make national news and it was just a prank. Tonight those two students will have some time in juvenile hall to consider how to be a "little smarter".

Wow, Shells! How scary! I am so thankful that the Lord protected you and that it wasn't the "real thing." Hopefully, those two will learn their lesson.
Love you!

Hi Jen,
God was very gracious yesterday that the situation was not more serious. I remember the situation that Selena was in one time while teaching in LA. I think they were in lock down for 5 hours, looking for the bank robbers that had assult rifles. My school needs to come up with a real plan if something like this was to really happen. Yesterday, may have alerted the principals that there needs to be a set plan in place for a situation like we had.
Anyway, it has been way too long since I have last spoken with you. I will try to give you a call sometime soon. I miss you dearly. Have a wonderful day sister.
