The student shot is expected to be okay.

Three staff members are being praised for their quick response to help the victim.

TJ Principal says campus was secure within minutes. “It pains me to know that our community fell victim to this unimaginable incident.” He said he watched stories on Arlington school shooting and thought “this couldn’t happen here. Then it did.” @WBAP247NEWS @570KLIF pic.twitter.com/lmTkzOrzWx
