Parkland students make the difficult move back to school

The tears are still there, along with the fears. But it’s time.
The students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School will return to the classroom Wednesday, two weeks after 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz gunned down 17 staff and students and wounded 16 in one of the nation’s worst school shootings..
Nothing will ever be the same as before Valentine’s Day 2018, but the school year must continue.
“I have to go back to school ... look at empty desks. Try my hardest to feel safe,” tweeted Conor Dietrich, a junior who lobbied legislators in Tallahassee last week for stricter gun laws. “And worst of all try not to think about all the people I miss. This is going to be the hardest part by far.”
