Associated Press/Report for America

WINDER, Ga. (AP) — Students have begun pouring into Apalachee High School weeks after a school shooter killed two students and two teachers. Some students were still uneasy Tuesday about returning. The sounds of gunshots are still fresh in their minds, and many are mourning friends and teachers. The school has promised the expanded presence of law enforcement officers, school counselors and even therapy dogs. But some community members want more safety precautions. Students will also ease into school with a few weeks of half-days. The neighboring middle and elementary school reopened the week after the shooting.
