Butler County, Ohio, Sheriff Richard K. Jones offered free concealed carry training for 50 teachers and 250 teachers responded within 24 hours.

Breitbart News reported that Jones began advertising the free training on Sunday and the immediate response was 50 emails within 20 minutes:

20 pissed off kids with wristrockets and marbles could probably bring down or kill your average shooter....not to mention also arming the teacher.

There are modern slingshots that are every bit as effective as firearms at the range you'd be talking about.
