About 20 people were in the classroom at the time of the shooting, Kelly said. He would not give the room number or say what kind of class it was.
No shots were fired anywhere else, Kelly said.
"It's all self-contained in one classroom," Kelly said. The shooter was not believed to have left the room at any point, he said, and "no other students outside the classroom were in any danger."
Police will interview the other students who were in the classroom to find out why the shooting occurred, Kelly said.
