– The Virginia elementary school where a 6-year-old boy shot his teacher reopened Monday with stepped-up security and a new administrator, as nervous parents and students expressed optimism about a return to the classroom.
“There are concerns, of course,” she said. “We talked through it. His therapist gave me a thumbs-up and said he's good." Eve Parham said her fourth-grade granddaughter was very excited to return to school, particularly to her archery class. Parham praised the additional safety measures, including the planned distribution of clear backpacks to students.
“It’s good, but I just don’t want it to turn into a prison feel if you start cracking down on too many things,” Billet said.James Graves, who heads the local teachers union, the Newport News Education Association, said he has heard from several were told that if they weren't ready to come back, they must use their personal leave time or the Family and Medical Leave Act, which provides some employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave.
"I walked the building a little while ago, and are very excited to welcome their students back,” she said.
