[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ also add, that students running, scattering, and dying at Columbine is a huge part of the reason we have classroom lockdowns. [/quote] Perhaps it’s a difference between HS and ES. My kids in ES have always had easy access to exits (classroom windows or rooms adjacent to doors to outside. Maybe it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. [/quote] I’m the teacher PP above and this is it exactly. You don’t ALWAYS run. It isn’t your best option in every instance. But neither is sitting and waiting. My class is 100 yards from a clear exit to a parking lot that backs up to a public park. If I know the shooter is upstairs in our building, I’m telling the kids to run and get out. Sitting doesn’t benefit them in that scenario. If he’s in the hallways outside my classroom we are obviously sitting and hoping he doesn’t choose our room because that’s our only option. [/quote]
