Residents have endured school lockdowns, a manhunt and school shootings in recent weeks.
Students and community members hold up their phones during a vigil Wednesday in Highlands Ranch, Colo. One student was killed and eight others were injured during a school shooting at STEM Highlands Ranch. By Annie Gowen and Annie Gowen National correspondent Email Bio Follow Jennifer Oldham May 10 at 7:56 PM HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. — Tina Galterio had already bought her 7-year-old first-grader a bulletproof backpack to take to school.
High-schoolers coped in their own ways — angrily walking out of a vigil on Wednesday night they said was politicized, then gathering for an impromptu support group at the local library Friday. Then, on Tuesday, two students at the STEM Highlands Ranch charter school — about seven miles from Columbine — opened fire in classrooms, wounding several students and killing a senior, Kendrick Castillo, who tried to stop the attack.
“If you had suggested to anybody behind me or in this room that within 20 years in 20 miles we would have dealt with Columbine, the Aurora theater, Arapahoe High School, the shooting of Zack Parrish and four other deputies, we’d have thought you mad, and yet here we are again,” District Attorney George Brauchler said at a news conference Wednesday, referencing a 2013 high school murder-suicide and a Dec.
In the long, agonizing minutes after Tuesday’s deadly shooting, Shaylynn Hall, 31, stood in the rain behind yellow police tape and strained to catch a glimpse of her third-grader, Cameron. Teachers wiped tears from little faces. Hall, who graduated from Columbine High in 2005, said the trauma from that event is so ingrained in her worldview that she could almost predict what would follow Tuesday’s tragedy.
