Subject: TW: Risk of gun violence in public vs. private schools
If I had a say in my stepson's education, he would be in private. My three bio children attend private. My stepson's high school was on lock down this morning because a student did attempt to bypass security and had a loaded weapon.

MD has vastly stricter gun regulation than VA, and VA publics, VA privates, MD and DC privates all would allow kids to attend who live in VA with more lax gun laws.
You're welcome.
PP here. I would add that if you are more concerned with the "trauma" of drills than an actual shooting, that's irrational for a typical kid. It is reasonable to be concerned about lowering risks of school shootings. I am. And that's why we feel good about a "good" MCPS school.
