My 2 cents

I live in Frederick MD. On 9/11 when we watched the news about the WTC I went to my kids school asap and picked her up.

Ft. Detrick is a central target for every terrorist out there, period.

However we are somewhat equipped at home for an emergency and it does make sorta sense that they want to keep your kids in a safe place. I still would want my kid home.

When I picked up my daughter about 5 minutes into the WTC bombing, most teachers or students didn't even know what happend.

I live less than 5 miles from FT. Detrick and if it hits there we're kaboom within 300 miles anyway. So yea I rather have my children with me (plus we do have necessary stuff for this kind of attack at home) and I doubt the school has a gasmask for each child attending.
