3 kids, 3 adults dead in Nashville school shooting
No one who was shot at the Covenant School survived, officials said.
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee tweeted that he's \"closely monitoring the tragic situation.\"
\"Please join us in praying for the school, congregation & Nashville community,\" Lee said.
I am closely monitoring the tragic situation at Covenant, & the @TNDeptofSafety & @TNHighwayPatrol are assisting local law enforcement & first responders at the scene.

As we continue to respond, please join us in praying for the school, congregation & Nashville community.
Nashville Mayor John Cooper thanked first responders for their swift action and called on Nashville residents to reach out and help one another.
\"In this dark hour let us support each other,\" he said during a news conference.
In a tragic morning, Nashville joined the dreaded, long list of communities to experience a school shooting.

My heart goes out to the families of the victims. Our entire city stands with you.
As facts continue to emerge, I thank our first responders and medical professionals.
Tennessee state Rep. Bo Mitchell spoke to Linsey Davis on ABC News Live Prime on Monday night, saying: \"My two teenage boys leave, and with every expectation, I expect them to come home in the afternoon. We've got three parents tonight; their children did not get to come home today and it is sad.\"
Mitchell said he spent hours with students' parents on Monday, who wanted he and his colleagues to take action.
\"Not a single parent asked me for a thought or a prayer,\" he said. \"They asked for me and my colleagues to have some courage and do something about this.\"
Some parents took to social media in the wake of the Covenant School shooting to express their frustration of yet another mass shooting.
Kimberly Garcia, who lost her daughter, Amerie Jo Garza, in the Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde, Texas, tweeted, \"When is enough going to be enough?\"
\"6 more innocent lives TAKEN? But it's not the guns right ? Wake up people,\" she wrote.
Lives Robbed, a group made up of some Uvalde victims' families advocating for changes in gun laws around the country, also tweeted their support for the Nashville families who lost loved ones Monday.
\"We are with you. This is why we fight for change,\" the group tweeted.
