I found this quote in a local newspaper

Here is a much more complete story on this:

The attacker it seems,,,,and I don't know more than that, other than reading it here, it seems thought she might be terminated ....
.....If the attacker thought that she was being terminated around Christmas by
her Department Chair,
and that is also mentioned ( at least in passing) it could cause someone to snap. That is no reason to attack anyone,but some might snap with that kind of news..if that is true..

The stabbing, he said, took place in a hallway of the school at approximately 10:03 a.m. Almost immediately, teachers, students and staff began to intervene. English teacher Ronette Ricketts managed to stab Glozier 16 times in total, he said.


Police and medics were called once Ricketts was “removed” from Glozier, he said, and the school was locked down until it was deemed secure an hour and 15 minutes later.
