Ohio School Shooting

A 14 year old Cleveland boy, Asa Coon, went on a shooting spree after he was suspended earlier during the week for fighting near the school.  Students were hiding in closets and bathrooms afraid and didn’t know what to do.  Once the principle announced “Code Blue” students know what to do.  After the shooting was done and over, there were five injured and he took his own life.  Of the five that were injured, two teachers and two students were shot at and one student was hurt after trying to get out of the school while the shooting was going on.  Everyone that was hurt was not in any life threaten conditions.     

 

I think the shooting in Cleveland at Success Tech Academy could have been prevented.  I am thinking this because many students had heard Coon making threats a week before he even did anything.  The students did the right thing by going to the principle and tell her what he said.  I think it was wrong of the principle because every time the students wanted to talk to her, she was always to busy to talk to them.  It was wrong on her part, because that is part of her job as well as the teachers to make it a safe environment for the students.  This is why I do think this shooting could have been prevent, if things would have been taking care of differently
