News Channel 5: To mark one year since the mass shooting at The Covenant School, 13,000 people will create a human chain

Lizzi Riordan · March 13, 2024 ·

“NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It’s difficult to put into words how last Spring’s tragedy at The Covenant School impacted our community.

On March 27, 2023, six innocent people — three students and three school employees — were shot to death in the hallways of the school.

This upcoming March 27, Voices for a Safer Tennessee (Safer TN) invites people to create a human chain from Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital to the state capitol.”
