Phoenix-area schools take extra precaution to social media threats due to Atlanta shooting [Video]

PHOENIX – Following the Atlanta school shooting, Cesar Chavez High School was one of the schools to receive a threat on social media and extra security was put in place on Sept. 6.

A lot of parents did not bring their child to school as a result.

An anonymous parent said, “I’m looking at the parking lot and there’s just not (a lot of people here). It’s usually packed. Traffic gets crazy here.”

The high school looked a lot different today compared to any other school day.

A Spanish-speaking parent mentioned, “The traffic was really different today. It’s usually very full and today there is very little traffic.”

“There was probably 9 students in each of my classes,” said Celeste Pablos an 11th grader at Cesar Chavez.

She was aware of the school threat that circulated on social media.
