Schools have a duty to protect students and ensure they learn in an atmosphere free from fear and violence. Allowing guns in schools could potentially put students in harm's way and prevent schools from fulfilling this duty. While school shootings get media attention, statistics show that the vast majority of students will never experience lethal violence at school. There is no clear evidence that introducing more guns into schools will actually increase safety and prevent violence.

At school it's the right of all
young people to learn in an
atmosphere free from fear
and violence. Schools have a
duty and responsibility to
protect its students and to
expect that children won't be
harmed by anyone carrying a
weapon.

9. According to the CDC's School
Associated Violent Death Study,
between 1% and 2% of all homicides
among school-age children happen on
school grounds or on the way to and
from school or during a school
sponsored event. So the vast majority
of students will never experience lethal
violence at school.
