The School operated on a half-day schedule but is expected to resume normal operations with an infusion of mental health resources in the days to come.
The student accused in the shooting is 17-year-old Steven Alston, Jr., who is being charged as an adult with attempted second-degree murder, after opening fire on another student in the bathroom.
The victim remains in critical condition. Alston allegedly used a ghost gun, which police released a picture of. He told authorities he bought parts for the 9 mm ghost gun online and assembled it, a prosecutor said in court on Jan. 24.
In the wake of the shooting, state lawmakers have discussed new legislation to ban ghost guns in the future.
