In some high schools, drills are being carried out—but not for fire safety. When a bell rings students and teachers cut off lights, run into closets and keep quiet while someone roams the halls pretending to be a shooter. Armed instead, with a notepad, the shooter writes down the rooms where he hears giggles or can see students. This is the new age of “shooter drills” designed to keep students safer should a shooting occur. What do you think?
