Yes, and if ever an active shooter that teacher will defend those children but this time will have the ability to also save their own lives unlike the unarmed teacher who saved the children but was killed. Maybe they want the kids to wait 10 x 15 min or more for the police thereby allowing more lives to be lost. And they make it a racial thing. Dumb as a stone.
Several weeks ago, I posted the procedures several of the private Jewish schools have instituted. The following were designed by an IDF soldier who was on leave and stateside when October 7 happened.
Teachers who volunteered to carry weapons were put through three courses; gun safety, defensive and tactical training.
Classroom door locks were changed to deadbolt locks.
Teacher’s file cabinets were relocated to directly next to the classroom door and made light enough the teacher could move the cabinet in front of the door.
Every classroom is now supplied with a window fire ladder.
Hopefully, I get this in the correct order.
If a shooter enters the school, teacher’s first word is drop. At that point students have been trained to drop and turn their desk up in front of them.
While they do that, the teacher locks the door, moves the file cabinet in front of the door and retrieves her weapon from the file cabinet.
Two-three students have been trained to retrieve the fire ladder, open the window, place the fire ladder for students to depart the school.
The number one priority is to have students vacate the school! They are NOT to wait for police!The teacher remains guarding the door, yet is verbally encouraging students in vacating the classroom.
An area outside each school has been designated for students to gather. Teachers are the last out.
As a fun note, one of the school secretaries is a competitive shooter.
As the county is not gun friendly, parents in these schools have not discussed their new protocols nor made any authorities aware of them.
