@htowndailynews: Some Lamar CISD families are demanding answers after a viral video showed a parent walking through a school and entering a classroom full of students to confront a teacher. School leaders told ABC13 that last week a parent got past Pink Elementary School's security measures. A spokesperson told ABC13 a parent accessed the building without permission and went into a classroom. The parent recorded the incident and shared it on social media. The widely seen video has caused an uproar with parents we spoke to, who are questioning school security. District leaders told ABC13 they're aware of the video too. Not all families have seen it, though. Eyewitness News showed Wanda Gray, who has grandchildren that attend the school. "Anything could've happened," Gray said. "What if this parent was so angry she had a gun? It could've escalated. What if that teacher was in that frame of mind where she felt threatened, things could've escalated." #htx #htown #houston #houstontx #houstontexas
I’ll never forget the time there was bad weather in the area and so I decided to go pick up my daughter from school. They wouldn’t let me take her because they were about to lock down for the weather. I told them either they were going to call her to the office or I was going to get her myself. They refused, I went to her classroom, got her and stop by the office on my way out to let them know she is officially unenrolled now.

A determined person will find a way to get in. That parent should be arrested.

The parent was wrong however I’m glad it happened bc it highlights the school doesn’t have good safety standards at all. It’s scary.

These schools in Texas are so larger so many entry and extra points is so hard to cover every one of them.

A meeting with the principal and the teacher may have resolved the issue ... however, perhaps going to the school board if other parents are willing

Now that shooters or people from outside know they can just come in makes the danger risk higher 🤷♀️

This happened once at the school my children attended in HISD. The mother was upset she missed the early pickup time by 15 min and went into the school to get her child. Admin was immediately called over the radio and met her on the 2nd floor while she was knocking on the doors & trying to open them. She was able to leave with her child & had to be escorted out. It was a huge topic at our school because the principal at the time did nothing, at all, during the event and after. All I'm going to say is if that mother at our school had been a POC the event would have turned out differently.
