“I am feeling a little nervous and anxious, this is not the first time that Coconut Creek has had a lot of problems, so I am very worried and I do not think my son will return to this school,” said Natalie Etienne, parent.
“I’ll pick him up at 12:30. I wait in line, so I was here before it all happened, “says Tiffany Hood, a parent from the reunification area.” I was scared because they didn’t tell us anything and we wanted to go out for an hour, it was 1:45 when it’s the policeman came and said we had to come here. “
