Join me as I journey through a harrowing tale of a school shooting and the ongoing decline of a school district. We're unmasking the shocking reality of how unchecked bullying can lead to tragic outcomes, and the administrative negligence that inadvertently fuels these crises. Be prepared as we unravel my personal narrative, showing how my children bore the brunt of the district's failings, shedding light on the pressing need for comprehensive changes in the way we handle student safety and wellbeing.

In the wake of the Highland High School shooting, we examine the experiences of the students in the district. Hear firsthand my children's experiences - Madison and Jacob - who endured bullying, isolation, and the repercussions of poor educational support. Their stories are a stark reminder of the challenges many students face in present-day school districts.

This episode of True Crime, Authors and Extraordinary People is an intense, eye-opening exploration of school violence, bullying, and the aftermath. It's an invitation to engage in a critical analysis of the true state of our school systems and how we can better protect and nurture young minds. Remember, the aim is to stay humble, spread kindness, and harbor the extraordinary within us.
