I must have been looking at something truncated that mentioned Beslan that made it look like a lot fewer than this. But I went back and looked for a full article. It said 334 dead, including 186 children, hundreds more injured.

I went with the Wikipedia table:

Official fatalities
Hostages 334
Other people 10
Special forces 10+
Hostage-takers 31
Total 385+

I did not want to count the terrorists, so I subtracted them from the total.
