HUNTSVILLE (WATE) -- Scott High School students returned to school Monday for the first time after losing four classmates in a car crash over the weekend.

Many students say they are leaning on one another. Many are still in disbelief.

"It feels like a movie, like it's not reality. That's why it's taking so long to sink in," said senior Andi Tillman.

Students say the tragedy is so traumatic, words can't describe what they are feeling.

"We just all knew these girls," said Tillman. "It wasn't just someone you saw in the halls. We all spoke with each of them at least once and they are cheerleaders."

That's what makes the loss even greater for the students. The school is part of a closeknit community. Many say nearly everyone has been impacted in some way.

"You never know that it may be the last time you could see your child," said a parent, Michelle King. "You never know, but you have to take a chance. You can't lock them up."
