Regardless, my opinion on the mental health of the students the real question should always be:
Is being in that building conducive to learning?
That answer is no.
No.

I get that to a point. But on the flip side I don't think we need to teach our kids that anytime something tragic happens, we try to just erase all traces of it and completely remove everything related so the poor kids aren't exposed to any bad feelings. Part of life is experiencing and dealing with tragedy. We can't simply shield everyone from it at all times. It's not possible.
