“We have since learned that the school did have contact with the student the day before and the day of the shooting for behavior in the classroom that they felt was concerning.

The meeting happened around 10 a.m. The shooting was reported to police at 12:51 p.m.
“I can tell you he came out of the bathroom with the firearm and began shooting. I can’t tell you if he loaded it in there,” Bouchard said.
