It's not easy to accomplish "happy medium" gun legislation. Registering staff members to keep a handgun locked in the trunk of their sedan/ glove compartment of their truck, on school grounds, is what crossed my mind.
I went to an all male boarding school for most of my HS education and had instructors who were capable in dealing with most student violence. When they had to subdue a student with an xacto blade, or baseball bat, using front kicks and small joint manipulation on the upper body worked for them.
Genetics played a big role in the outcome and shooting is an entirely different scenario, but if you look at the total sum of incidents of school violence , I think you will see that having CCP teachers won't save more lives. Not only is pulling a gun unnecessary in nearly all cases, aside from school shootings; it gives students the opportunity to plan an attack to relieve the instructor's CCW.
This line of reasoning is easy to hate when applied to citizen's private residencies - but schools are not about having the same personal liberties as you do in your home. Just my .02
