'It took for this to be a mass shooting in our backyard for people to be like 'Oh God, we should probably do something',' said a parent.
BayTech is making security changes of their own, including multiple check points for pick-up and drop-off, license plate verification to drive on campus and more on-site security.
They are also removing students from spaces shared with the other schools on campus. They want to implement more changes, but they will need district approval. "What is frustrating to me is we want to give the best that we can give to our kids, and at times we just can't give them the best because of outside forces and adult behavior," said Dr. Seth Feldman, Superintendent and Executive Director at BayTech.
Parents said they are happy with what BayTech has done, but are critical of the district and how little was done after prior incidents on campus. "It took for this to be a mass shooting in our backyard for people to be like 'Oh God, we should probably do something'," said Michael McDaniel Jr, a BayTech parent.
