On the morning of Dec. 14, 2012, in Sandy Hook Elementary School, first grade teacher Kaitlin Roig endured one of the worst tragedies the world has ever seen.

The heroic teacher is credited with saving the lives of all 15 of her students by acting quickly upon hearing the sounds of gunfire and locking them all in a small bathroom until the 'good guys' came to let her know that it was over and they were now safe to come out.
