We've had several drills prior to this occurring for real. Kid/perps parents don't have a nickel to thier name. The parents are the real problem like a couple of other post said. I don't think many people showed up to try and get thier kids out, but some did. They wouldn't have been allowed to thier child anyway. Once that starts happening, kids disappearing from secure areas inside or out, then keeping track of all of them would be impossible. Some people are incredibly self-centered anyway. When given an oportunity to shine during one of these events to a self-absorbed person ist akin to having hollywood calling. Get all dolled up for the media present. Flap could tell us more than I on this. He is inside everyday............like a corrections officer somedays I'm sure. I think overall it went well. Thier was one problem with what bomb squad was in charge. The partner town in this I guess always calls the MBTA bomb squad and we call the S.P.'s. It is a huge friekin school. It was nice that we had a few calls after the fact, from parents, saying they thought we did a great job.
