I hope homeland security is discussing this. 9/11 happened a couple of days after school started here. I remember how the aftershock of the attack jolted the students and school staff at the time and how the schools here provided counseling. We've taken steps to protect infrastructure and office buidings and sporting events. We must do the same for our children.
i live in No.VA and work in DC. all 3 of my kids attended the same school in VA, back on 9/11. i seriously worry what i would do were it to happen now, because all 3 of them are in different schools in different parts of town.
