Let’s figure out how to provide adequate security in schools but let’s not look to the educators to provide it.

Okay... time to step down off my soapbox.

I definitely must agree. I've seen graduates that can't seem to tell the difference between there, their, and they're.
Now let me get down off your soapbox.

But we must make sure they have a safe place to learn. This certainly isn't the only option. How else would you improve security?
