Thank you...again so much information, being reported by so many different sources, so facts get jumbled.
SH, from you posts I know you are in the area, are the other schools (public, private) open today? How is the Lancaster community coping?
The public schools are open. I didn't hear of private schools, but it's hardto say. All the Amish schools are of course private and would not announce if they were closed. In this county we probably have a higher percentage of private schools and home schoolers than any other county, perhaps in the country. There's enough homeschoolers alone to make up a good-sized school district.
It's times like these that make me thankful to live here amongst so many conservatives with strong faith. Everyone is stunned and devastated, but there's not much liberal-style finger-pointing and hand-wringing. We're all "family", and will see that the families and friends of these victims want for nothing, spiritually or physically.
