Pope Francis responds to letters from former Robb Elementary students
The Vatican responded to letters written by children of Uvalde, Texas following the May 2022 shooting at Robb Elementary School that killed 19 fourth graders and two teachers. The letters come from students at Sacred Heart Catholic school in Uvalde, many of whom transferred to the school from Robb Elementary through scholarships provided by Catholic Extension, which also facilitated the letter-writing project.
