So this is kind of a long one. I live in America so school shootings aren’t as common as people think but they still happen, anyways it was Thursday afternoon in my 7th period French class, we were watching a movie and we were happy the day was almost over. As soon as the movie started to reach the end, someone on the intercom came on and said “Students and Faculty, this is not a drill, there is an active shooter inside the building. Lock your doors, turn off the lights and move to the closest place out of view from any door or window, this is not a drill.” My French teacher who was particularly a very calm and chill teacher, rushes to the door visibly distressed and locked it, rushing us into the room that connects the Spanish and French rooms. All of us students are confused, some are crying, some are praying, and some are laughing because they think it’s funny for some reason. We were huddled in that small break room for what seemed like 20-30 minutes. Turns out there was a maintenance team there who accidentally pushed the “lock, lights, out of sight” intercom button when fixing the fire alarm. Still a little freaked out.
