Safety in schools: 1 year since this boy was shot in his school hallway
Submitted by Rob on Fri, 05/23/2008 - 09:42.Today marks exactly one year since a 15-year-old boy, Jeffrey Manners, was gunned down during school hours in a hallway at C.W. Jeffreys High School in Toronto, Ontario.
I posted to another blog about this horrific tragedy this time last year - and I can't say it's any easy to contemplate it now.
I lost my own teenage son, to different circumstances (workplace accident) but what he and Jeffrey had in common was they went off those fateful days to environments they assumed were safe.
Safe at school. Safe at work.
