The gunfire began around 7:30 a.m. at Saugus High School in suburban Santa Clarita, where Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies responding to a torrent of 911 calls found all six students in a quad area. Sheriff Alex Villanueva said the shooter was a student at the school but did not identify him. She said a student burst into the room saying he’d seen the gunman, and her classmates were stunned into silence. Saugus High’s security is provided by one unarmed sheriff’s deputy and nine “campus supervisors” who act as guards, said to Collyn Nielson, chief administrative officer for the William S. Hart Union High School District. All district schools hold lockdown drills three times a year, including two in the fall that have already occurred, Nielson said.
