Comal County Sheriff Mark Reynolds said hours after the shooting that he did not know her condition. <\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">\u201cWhat happened today is something no community ever wants to face, but we prepare for something that we hope never occurs,\u201d Reynolds said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">He said the student shot the teacher before turning the gun on himself. Reynolds said investigators were working to understand the relationship between the student and the teacher and looking into how the firearm was obtained.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The small campus of roughly 250 students was placed on lockdown shortly after 8:30 a.m., according to the school. One student told San Antonio television station <a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ksat.com\/news\/local\/2026\/03\/30\/shooting-reported-at-hill-country-preparatory-college-high-school-in-comal-isd-comal-county-sheriffs-office-says\/\">KSAT<\/a> that they heard loud bangs coming from a room on the second floor and then heard screaming. <\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Another student told the TV station that she heard five shots and yelling before her debate teacher told students to get inside a classroom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Students were bused to a nearby middle school, where parents stood in long lines, some praying, as they waited to be reunited. Reynolds said the family members of the shooter had also gone into reunification line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">\u201cWe\u2019re trying to collect as much information as we can from witnesses,\u201d Reynolds said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Jesse Lopez, a parent, told KSAT that it will be difficult to tell his daughter that she has to eventually go back to class.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">\u201cFor one, she has autism, and she\u2019ll be afraid to go back, she\u2019ll be real afraid to go back,\u201d Lopez said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The school canceled classes for Tuesday but counselors would still be made available for students and families, principal Julie Wiley said in a statement. She did not provide details about the teacher&#8217;s condition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">\u201cOur hearts are with everyone impacted, especially that teacher, their family, and our school community,\u201d Wiley said. \u201cWe know this has been a difficult day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The high school, which is part of the Comal Independent School District, focuses on academics and skills to prepare students for college, according to the district&#8217;s website. Its curriculum is centered on science, technology, engineering, arts and math, known as STEAM, with electives that include cybersecurity and engineering. <\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The school opened in August 2020 with a freshman class.
