Fernandina Beach High School students gather in the courtyard to pay tribute to students who were killed at Parkland High School.

To the music "Stand By Me" students walked from their classrooms to the courtyard at Fernandina Beach High School to pay tribute to the seventeen Parkland, Florida students tragically killed during a mass shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. Names and words of remembrance were read for each student who lost their lives. The gathering ended with a moment of silence.

The solemn occasion was organized by the Fernandina Beach High School Student Government. School personnel, estimated 50% of the FBHS students took part in the voluntary gathering held today at 10:00 a.m.
