And those ‘lines of sight’ are what keep the kids safe/r ..as it allows staff to monitor aggressive or abusive behavior from afar.. Republicans make me sick.

Go figure, a typical Republican answer. That is to say, no answer.

Can you imagine one of self-styled teacher John Wayne vigilantes armed with their pistol come popping around a blind corner in the new building. They pop around the corner and come face to face with the first responders. But because hes not properly trained for confrontation, he snaps his pistol up and first responders have choice but take him down not knowing if hes an assailant or not. This is especially true if the teacher is a person of color.

Who will pay? They are so quick to enhance the rich but will give nothing anywhere else, especially education. BUT, since this isn't education, maybe they can call it security wall money.

Most schools were designed for education enhancement. Allowing more light (windows) in room, library and centralized locations are wide open. Unfortunately in today's world that means easier targets. Also, many of the high schools I taught in do not have the doors to the classroom lock from the inside. If your class is not locked and there is a shooter, you need to go out in the hall to lock the door with a key. Keeping the doors always locked create an atmosphere of interruption when kids are late or need to go to the bathroom, having them locked at all times is very inconvenient. We don't need to redesign schools for mass shootings. We need to stop/limit the shootings.
