I spoke more with my daughter regarding this. I asked her how it came up in her classroom. She said the principal had a moment of silence for the victims, then many kids in her class (including my daughter) had questions. The teacher did discuss the safety measures already in place at the school. I guess there really isn't much I could about this, except make sure I talk to my daughter about these things BEFORE the school does. When things are this public, it is bound to come up at school. After telling my sister about all of this, she decided she better talk to her daughter about the incident too. We have all learned a valuable lesson from this. My sister and I will talk to our kids before the school does from now on.
