My Holocaust teacher likes to discuss this with us.
He always tells us: if a shooter comes to our school, you better hope you're in his class, because his AP textbooks were deemed best defense against a gun.
Read: last summer, the new, crazy SRO shot a bunch of textbooks, and this one didn't have a bullet pass through it.
But no matter what class you're in, grab the biggest textbook you can find. Don't huddle in the corner or under desks—then the shooter comes in and massacres this huddle.
Wait by the door. As soon as it opens, tackle the shooter. Most people can hold textbooks (they make very good bludgeons as well as shields) and maybe give the football players desks.
Just pile 30 odd teenagers on top of the shooter. Kick the gun far away—maybe throw it out a window. Most students won't be able to bring themselves to shoot, and so best case would be to get it as far away from the shooter as possible.
Have the football players knock him out, maybe.
And somewhere in there, someone called the cops.
Strategy courtesy of the most eccentric teacher I've ever had.
My own addition: set up a phone somewhere to film what happens. Don't have someone hold it—that makes them a target. But get a recording. Recordings are great for any legal matters—another piece of wisdom from my Holocaust teacher.
