A school with its own armory would likely not need more than a rifle, shotgun, and a handgun. It would not need to take up a large amount of space; empty classrooms or smaller service rooms could be re-purposed to fit such a role.

I'm with Bisjac and Tony on this one, like Tony said if the right person had a gun in the situation to defend themself and defend the other innocents around them then stuff like columbine would have never happened

Yeah
In middle-schools and high-schools it'd be more of a risk. But in Elementaries, it's pretty unrealistic to assume an 11 - 12 year old ( 6th grade age if not held back ) knows how to do all of that, or the teacher is so incompetent that they'd leave a fully loaded, roostered, and saftey disabled gun out in the open where a kid can easily find and reach it.

A police officer on staff would be a better equivalent.
That 60 year old vocabulary teacher isn't going to do stuff with a loaded shotgun. If anything the shooters will end up having a newly acquired gun.

Giving teachers firearms training seems unnecessary when staff with a security background can be hired instead.
