Parents of the San Jose Unified School District (SJUSD) are terrified after the arrest of several students who brought weapons to school and who made threats of shootings at local schools through social media.
At a safety meeting held Wednesday at Herbert Hoover Middle School that stretched into the night, distraught parents gathered to demand immediate action and transparency from the school district.
They also want the district to provide more emotional support to students and teachers following school threats and gun incidents. The school district invited the Lincoln, Hoover, Willow Glen Middle and Willow Glen High school communities to attend.
Misty Pickford, a parent of a Willow Glen High School student, wants the district's communications plans updated.
