Bonfire, I understand what you are saying, but the teacher did what she probably thought was right - get to a phone and get some help.

The gunman had been in that school for about 45 minutes before the teacher could get out. He walked in with a handgun in his palm. He brought 2x4's and 2x6's with him, as well as either wire ties or flexcuffs. The teacher didn't just run and keep on going - she called for help.

I'm not disagreeing. I'd like to THINK I would do everything to protect the kids by demanding to stay....but how does one know WHAT they would do unless confronted by a gun to their own head.
