Last night, parents like Ronda received a phone call from the principal at Bradford informing them that the school was aware of a shooting threat on social media. That call was the third one made in just one week.

"Two threats in less than 24 hours—this is serious; someone really has intent here," Nikki Tiani said.

Kenosha parents concerned with school safety

Nikki said incidents like this are becoming a pattern, recalling that her son, a junior at Bradford High School, was attacked last year in the school hallway.

"A lot has been swept under the rug, and we lack so much transparency from Bradford," Nikki said. "We've had so many incidents that we learn about from our students, not from the faculty, and that's upsetting."

Now, to ensure their children are safe, they are calling for more communication from the school, as they have not received any updates on more safety measures.

"We do need more safety measures," Nikki said. "I don't think we have trust with the school right now."
