There is a certain level of sensitivity [when parents want to transfer students]. But the district has a responsibility to manage the overcrowded schools.

It's nice to see how students respond when given the responsibility. One teacher noted that a student who would normally be a problem in other situations was working with other students in trying to get them organized for one of the events.

We know that we have a big responsibility to the parents, to the students, and to the public taxpayers to make sure that our students are having the opportunity to graduate in a timely fashion.

It's good because the parents and visitors get to come and talk about what they do to the students, and the students feel good because a lot of them know who the presenters are. Everyone has a good feeling.

For the families and parents of the victims there has not been one iota of accountability or responsibility on any level since 9/11. This is our last hope . . . to see that this person receives justice.

We feel a responsibility to our parents.
