What we know about the investigation into the Bend school shooting
Teacher Megan Lambert was a victim in the Silver Rail Elementary School shooting in Bend, Oregon.

“To the shooter, she would have given you the shirt off her back,” Wood said. “But you didn’t give her a chance.”

Wood said that Lambert wouldn’t take her volleyball coaching pay in her first year so the money could be used for scholarships for players who couldn’t afford to play instead.
