I understand that especially in different areas of the country and in different political areas, that gun presence and acceptance may be different, but there is no reason for school staff be it administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, secretaries, custodians, etc. to have a firearm on property of the building. There are procedures in place, or there should be, especially after Columbine, to lock down schools for such situations without school faculty drawing weapons with the possibility of injuring coworkers or students.
