I have an issue with run/hide/fight in a high school. Elementary, definitely. Middle school, maybe the younger classes. High school, no way.
You already have groups of people like the varsity athletes that are going to be in better shape and more naturally aggressive than the shooters when fighting. They also have home field advantage. Why not put them to work to help take out the shooters? Arm (some of) the teachers so the balance of power isn't in the shooters' hands. Where was the school resource officer?
Many of us dealt with the adrenaline dump in our first fire fight. Honestly, can you say that your aim and judgement was anywhere near as good as it was during training before hand? The active shooter is going to be on his first run too... (unless ex-mil) Yes, maybe one or two students get shot in the rush, but isn't that still better than this:
