### Palm Beach County parents concerned about school safety

'Our elected officials and our school board has 8 weeks to make our children safe at school'
BOCA RATON, Fla. — With the tragedy in Texas, parents are looking into what's being done to keep children safe in school districts like Palm Beach County.
May 26 is the last day of school for children like Arielle Richardson, who attend Del Prado Elementary in Boca Raton.
"A lot of kids didn't show up today because their parents were nervous about sending to school today," said Richardson. "They're aware of current events and I try to shield them from these really tragic situations because I want them to not go to school not feeling uncomfortable or scared, but it's a reality."
Boca Raton police had extra patrols on campuses Thursday, as well as school board police, until the start of summer.
