Students return to Apalachee High after deadly shooting, held on September 4, 2024
Three weeks after a deadly shooting, students and staff at Apalachee High School are being eased back into their daily routines. On Monday, 9/23, the school will welcome those who are comfortable with returning to school to an open house. Classes resume on Tuesday. When students return, school officials said there will be an increased law enforcement presence, additional counselors, therapy dogs and other resources. Police say 14-year-old Colt Gray opened fire inside the school on Sept. 4. The shooting claimed the lives of football coach Richard Aspinwall, math teacher Cristina Irimie, and students Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo. The building’s J Hall, the area where the shooting happened, will be closed for the rest of the year, and social studies classes will be held in a nearby Barrow County Schools building. Buses will take students back and forth.
