In reply to Sydney Jean Steward. Bingo! Available AEDs and advanced first aid/trauma kits are beginning to multiple, too. And how about the fire drills and storm drills that never seemed to bother kids but defense drills do?

“The purpose of having armed staff isn’t to replace police…” It’s also to provide a deterrent. “Staff members are armed and will use necessary force to protect children and staff from attempts of violence.”

Schools have plenty of fire extinguishers on hand, even though the fire department responds to fires…

The first step in ending a bad guy with a gun, is for the good guy to have a “gun”.

The problem is this training really revolves around a 9mm handgun design. It doesn’t involve 32acp, or 22lr, or 380, and no 38 special.

All the above are far more easy to conceal than a 9mm handgun. Teacher’s are not going to open carry. There are handgun retention issues.
I pocket carried a beretta 21a while I attended college. And I carried a Henry AR7 rifle in my book bag. Because 10 years ago shootings on schools grades k thru college level were happening it seemed about every month.
