In my 20+ years of working within the public school system before retirement until now I saw school shootings go from random occurrences that no one heard about much before Columbine to common occurrences that happen almost every year. No amount of school security procedures has helped to stop school mass shootings as it as evidence has shown that no amount of training of school staff and students can combat weapons of mass destruction. But I admit to being bias.

Hope is all we have, as parents in a country whose leaders can’t be motivated by the slaughter of children in their classroom.
