At a tense and emotional council meeting on Tuesday, when locals were demanding answers about the shooting, Don McLaughlin made the statement.

He did not specify a date for the school’s demolition.

Since the May rampage, public ire has grown as a result of allegations that police delayed confronting the attacker for more than an hour.

“My understanding is that the school will be demolished, and I discussed this with the superintendent. You may never ask a student or teacher to return to that school “Added Mr. McLaughlin.

In the second, third, and fourth grades at Robb Elementary, there are around 600 children.

State Senator Roland Gutierrez informed local media last month that US Vice President Joe Biden had suggested demolishing the institution.

Not the first school to be destroyed following a horrific shooting will be Robb Elementary.

After 20 students, ages six and seven, and six staff members were shot in Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, in 2012, the building was demolished. On the same property, a new school was constructed.

According to the director of public safety for Texas, there were enough police present in Uvalde three minutes after the shooter entered the building to have stopped him. But before a team entered a classroom, cops stood outside for more than an hour.

The police response, according to Steven McCraw, was a “abject failure,” and the on-scene commander was charged with prioritising the safety of the officers over the welfare of the kids.

The attack by Salvador Ramos, 18, has reignited the national conversation about gun control laws.
