Anyone who was on campus at the moment of the shooting.
Even if they never saw the shooter, they were there when the alarms went off and then the announcement "shelter in place" and "this is no a drill". Hiding behind a locked door in a classroom closet while your classmates are being shot and killed.... Qualifies you as a survivor.
What makes it even worse is it's kids.
One time I was picking up my kid at high school when shots rang out. There was a police shooting two blocks from the school. My kid was walking across a field towards us; My wife and I were waiting in my Jeep. When the shots rang out my daughter just froze. I waved on towards us and ten seconds later the school went into lock down. My kid quickly hopped in my Jeep and were out of there. I'm sorry, kids shouldn't have to go through this shit.
