School Shooting

A school shooting is an incident where an individual, often armed with a firearm, opens fire in an educational setting, such as a school. These tragic events can result in injuries or fatalities among students, teachers, and staff. School shootings are typically associated with broader discussions about gun violence, mental health issues, and school safety measures. They can have profound psychological impacts on survivors, families, and communities, leading to calls for policy changes concerning gun control and mental health support to prevent future tragedies.
