Obviously we're on our way to reinstatement of SROs in schools, and thank goodness for that. I'll never understand people who wanted to defund police, etc. I'm all for left-wing policies, but only when they actually make sense. If you want to address racism in law enforcement, you make make police academies MORE selective, and you lure in smarter candidates with more attractive pay (same method if you want to increase teaching standards).The dumb people will never react well in crisis situations regardless of the training they get! You can't staff such positions with the poorly-paid and the ones without critical thinking skills, and then act surprised that they're incompetent.

We also need metal detectors and random bag searches.

I'm a European who never had to deal with shootings in school, but did live through middle and high school under terrorist bomb threat. Our school perimeter was secure against cars with bombs. Anti-terrorist police would patrol the streets. Once some idiots spray-painted on a school wall, and we had a knife fight in the street between rival schools, so it was decided our bags would be searched for weeks after that.
