The gear can get pricey. Especially if you are looking for a college/athletic scholarship.
1958
2016
Deer season has excused absences.
I took hunter safety in middle school there.
Don’t complain about gun accidents then.
I guess then that a gun safety course is totally inappropriate for my scout troop before the annual shooting fair in November
My high school had a gun club and an indoor shooting range.
Right with you my FRiend.
I started Shooting with my Dad and Brother when I was eight.
Also had a .410 Single Shot and a .22 Bolt Action (from Sears I think)...
My Brother and I shared a Room, and we had those two Guns as well as his 30.06, his Winchester Model 1892 and his collection of Ruger Pistols in our Closet along with a shitload of Ammunition.
To this day my Brother and I combined have killed one less Person than Ted Kennedy did using his Oldsmobile and four less than former SOS Hillary “The Butcheress of Benghazi” Clinton did due to her incompetence.
My mom and dad were on the same shooting team in high school. After the war ended my dad came home and married her.
My Brother took his .22 Rifle to Middle School when we lived in Long Island, NY. He was in the School Gun Club and they had a small Target Range in the School Basement as I recall.
Of course, that was back in 1959.
Don’t recall any panic when he walked to School carrying it.

No, Gun Safety is PERFECTLY appropriate for High Schoolers.
What is Inappropriate is lying to grade school kids about sexual confusion so that the perverts have easier access to molest YOUR children.
My fourteen year old grandson who is entering high school in a couple of weeks could teach a course on gun safety...off of the top of his head with no preparation.
Wisconsin Demonicrats are unsuitable for High Schoolers, or anywhere in the Milky Way galaxy for that matter.
But it’s OK to send them off to war the day after they graduate?
My brother and I would take our 22 rifles on the National Ave bus. Ride it out to the end of the route ( I think it was 124th street), Go rabbit hunting and ride the bus home at the end of the day.
Democrats believe the kids book: Heather has Two Mommies is appropriate. And having unlimited access to abortion providers is appropriate. But somehow learning to properly use and maintain a firearm is inappropriate.
DemocRats want people to be completely ignorant of guns because ignorant people are easier to scare into supporting the anti gun agenda.
When my wife took her carry permit class, a young man had convinced his girlfriend (who had never held a gun in her life) to take the class. When she got to the range and it was time to shoot, they gave her a .22 to shoot but she was so scared that she was literally crying. After she shot a few rounds she realize that it wasn’t as scary as she thought. When she was finished, she said, “That was fun!”
Another convert.
Firearms training is always inappropriate in the eyes of those who’d be on the receiving end of them due to their authoritarian aspirations...
Yet they want to teach kindergartners about sex between two women or two men or if you are a boy and want to be a girl or visa versa
Didn’t read the article but assume that attending the gun safety course is not required for graduation.
Skeet shooting is a popular HS sports activity in Texas. To get a hunting license you are required to complete a hunter education course if under a certain age. Why not teach it at school?
