School administrators from Schurz High School and parents met Friday days after a drive-by shooting in Irving Park injured four teenagers nearby.
Some parents said they were happy to meet with school leaders, calling it productive. Others are wondering if the school is doing enough to keep students safe."I just wanted to see what they were gonna say; I mean, what can you really do," said Theresa Rios, grandparent of two students.
Jessica Marcotte's son witnessed the shooting Wednesday afternoon as he saw a black SUV pull up and fire shots near the ice cream shop across the street. The school is offering some mental health resources for students suffering from the trauma of this shooting. Parents hope Friday's meeting is the first toward something positive coming from this tragedy.
