By Perry Stein Perry Stein Reporter covering D.C. education Email Bio Follow March 21 at 3:29 PM It was billed as a drill.
Gail Zeheralis, director of government relations for the Indiana State Teachers Association, testified about a small school district between Indianapolis and Chicago that appeared to take its active-shooter training drill too far. Zeheralis said teachers waiting outside the room heard their co-workers screaming, and then were brought into the room and shot with the pellets. She said the teachers were told not to relay what happened to anyone.
Twin Lakes School Corporation offered few details but said in a statement the drill was conducted in partnership with the White County Sheriff’s Department. The sheriff’s department provided the school staff with ALICE training, which stands for “Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and Evacuate.”
