Armoured One and SEI Design Group, with assistance from Mannington Commercial, are teaming to highlight lessons learned from previous active shooter incidents in the same way doctors study the issues they face. Similarities in previous active shooter events inform districts on how to focus security budgets to effectively protect students, staff and school communities during these events.
There are still K-12 school buildings that need to be analyzed for how to protect against
active shooter events.
Even schools that have been analyzed have operation and management issues that need to be understood and dealt with.
