Jamo,
I understand your view point.The idea of teachers being armed in the classroom in the Dallas ISD isn't going to go anywhere.
Where you have 20 year old MEN still in High School as students and the teachers have no control to start with,Cops are having a tough time of it.

This unincorporated Texas town of Harrold in Wilbarger County is in a different situation and enviroment than most ISD's.

Wilbarger County
14,200 people
971 sq. miles
7 homes per sq. mile and 15 people per sq. mile
1 Sheriff and 2 Constables in Vernon - 20 miles away

Harrold Founded in 1880's
No Police,Sheriff Deputies or Constables
300 people
1 Post Office
4 businesses

Harrold ISD
K-12 on 1 campus
110 students
25 teachers

This students come from surrounding family owned farms & ranches.I would imagine most are familiar with and own their own firearms.
They are allowing teachers that are qualified and have a CHL to carry.The reason they give is that any help from Law Enforcement is 30 minutes away.

It's like a county I owned a business in,in the Hill Country,
10,000 people.

The vast majority of crime was brought into the county by way of highways.Not the local's living there.

That is their reasoning... Criminals from the outside is the threat and problem.
