Well, so long as they don’t leave it in that bin with all the hockey sticks in the PE teacher’s office.
You just need more gun control!
What are we in - the twilight zone?
Sorry this makes no sense to me.
Carry the guns in the squad car.
If you store the guns in the school the kids will know where the guns are.
If the kids plan something they will plan to disable the safe first thing and guns you can’t get to are like having no guns at all.
The only kind of issue this is useful for is something spontaneous which is unlikely to require extra weapons.
My JROTC had an arms room stocked with both funtional (rifle and pistol teams) and non-funtional (precision drill) rifles.
Oh, and there was no security officer.

Joe Friday had the answer sixty years ago: take the gun with you. What’s so difficult to understand?
How about just put a Dunkin Donuts store in every school parking lot. That way if you need lots of firepower, just turn on the “Hot Donuts” sign and the place will turn into a sea of blue, complete with all their gunz.
Are they preparing for a Red Dawn scenario in our future? Sure sounds like it.
What do these officers know that we don't? And why don't we, if it's this important?
Stupid questions: why does he need a “rifle” in a school? Will a handgun not suffice? Do they plan on him taking 100 yard shots down a hallway? Does he need 20 plus shots? If they are trying to cover for contingencies, just put up guard towers and barbed wire and treat it like prison.
If you take a step back and read the above I think you should substitute “Police” for school resource.
Since when are public high schools a police substation? Oh, excuse me I live in a “gun keeping bible reading” area of the Republic. I guess in major cities that have lived under Democratic rule for decades it is necessary to finally admit that high schools have to be a police substation because....
Not that bad an idea. I have a gan safe that contained a number of guns before The Horrible Boating Accident. It weighs about 550 lb. empty and would take somebody with a cutting torch and other tools quite a while to get into. None of the kids would have the necessary time and equipment. It would also take a major effort to disable the safe to make it inaccessible. If the cops think it’s a good idea for public safety, I don’t see any good reason to oppose it.
