It is important to point out that schools have no connection to these two crimes, at least as we understand them. Doing news stories about this with buses in the background teeters on the brink of sensational journalism. The schools were merely responding to rumors and taking precautions. It has nothing to do with school violence. If someone is killed in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant should we stop going to the mall? There is no proven connection. The students in CC schools are as safe-- and probably safer-- than the vast majority of schools in this country- including those in new hanover county.
