Superintendent Ray Tolacher said staff members heard the shots about 12:40 pm

I didn't know that pellet guns make that much noise, as to be heard across the school yard and the field.

I know for a fact some do. The guy who lived behind me had one big as a 44 and was shooting it (in the direction of my house at bottles he lined up on my fence) so it got my attention. Sounded like a .22, but the handgun was big for a pellet gun.
