[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was it a lock down? Or a secure the building? There’s a difference and the words matter A LOT. [/quote]
It was a lock down. My kid was in a closet[/quote]
Wow
That is so scary [/quote]
They also didn’t let them get backpacks so they had no keys or phone[/quote]

this is a big downside to the no phone policy. blame the loud parents who were so adamant about kids not having phones on them

in a lockdown, i want my kids to be able to text police and me[/quote]

in a lockdown, the last thing you want is for your child to be texting you and police. You want the kids attention on the teachers and you don't want notifications that are alerting someone to where your children are hiding. [/quote]

This. Plus in a lock down do you really want your kid walking in the halls to their locker? That’s the opposite of a lock down.  Secure the building is different. People still Cary in as normal inside the building in a secure the building situation.

Side note. It is absolutely bonkers that society is such that we’re having this conversation about what is and isn’t appropriate in lock downs, and distinctions between lock down and secure the building. We really should focus our energies on solving the underlying issues.[/quote]
No I don’t expect them to walk around during the lockdown. Students weren’t allowed to get them after lockdown was lifted. They were sent home without backpacks, keys etc. [/quote]
