Worry and concern among East Troy parents after a list was seen circulating in the middle school. It sparked parents to reach out to TMJ4 News for more transparency from the school district.The district would not do an on-camera interview but did release two statements saying the rumored hit list was actually a "ship list," meaning a relationship list. The list was created by students and detailed which students they thought should be dating each other. However, some parents say the new information came too late.
