Continuing the side track just a bit, but in my state collective bargaining is (and always has been) prohibited for public employees, including teachers. The state organization affiliated with the NEA operates as a professional association.

I think I said this upthread, but where I live, all middle and high schools have at least one law enforcement officer in them. They're there not just for security in case of incidents like this, but also for drugs, violence from students, etc.
