Hear Boy Describe What Principal Did In Mock Drill

Last Wednesday the Brighton school practiced a lockdown that was supposed to teach students emergency procedures. All classrooms had to lock their doors, but one first-grade room didn't. That's when the principal went in to the classroom and did something that traumatized the students, a parent said.

"He went up to each one of them and went, 'Bam, bam, bam!' And said, 'You're dead,'" said parent Jeanie Styer.

Styer said her son, Shay, has been sleeping in her bed since the drill. Styer said the principal later apologized to the kids.

The school confirms there was a lock down drill, but referred 7NEWS to the school's attorney for the details.
