What to know about the program.
It was six months ago but feels like just yesterday. On Feb. 14, a deranged teen attacked students and staff members at Parkland, Florida’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, killing 17. Like millions of parents and grandparents across America, I was transfixed by the news that day, watching the coverage with horror. I grieved for those whose lives were lost and those they left behind. And I feared for my own school-age grandkids.
Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School isn’t Broward’s only overcrowded school, or even the most overcrowded. But it is the only one rezoned for the upcoming school year to move out hundreds of students.
After the shooting, their families were left wondering how they could go on with their lives while honoring our loved one’s memory. Most have answered by starting foundations or performing other charitable work.
The families of the 17 people killed at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, remember their lost loved ones five years after the massacre.
