SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — A performer blew bubbles, a man handed out teddy bears and parents shared hugs and prayers Monday outside a California elementary school, as students returned to classes a week after a gunman opened fire in the special education classroom of his estranged wife, killing her and an 8-year-old boy.
Students on buses rolling up to North Park Elementary School in San Bernardino saw a large banner that read: “We love you.”
Dr. Dale Marsden, school district superintendent, said the reopening of the school was the first step toward healing after the deadly attack.
“We are all feeling the pain that comes with a tragedy like this,” he said. “Together, we will move forward.”
