This month, at least.
EMTs were already at school for a medical incidence. Thank goodness.

In addition, another student was taken to a hospital because of an allergic reaction, the mayor said.

Last month, 16-year-old student Luis Garcia was shot inside a parked car near the school and died weeks later,
according to CNN affiliate KMGH. A group of East High students later attended a city council meeting and demanded action on gun violence and school safety,
KMGH reported.
“We’re scared,” junior Mateo Tullar said at the meeting. “We don’t want to be at school. We don’t feel safe there. It’s not okay. These things need to change.”
Earlier this month, the Denver East High School chapter of Students Demand Action
staged a school walkout and called for immediate actionon gun safety. The walkout included a march through the city to the state capitol and featured more than 1,000 students and educators, according to Students Demand Action.
