Sheriff Arpaio’s posse would be good.

Schools in Phoenix, because of the weather, are built so that every classroom opens to the outdoors instead of an inside hallway.

Do both, and more: Armed LEOs, school administrators, and teachers. Arm the janitors, if need be.

I like Sheriff Joe’s plan. His posse is made up of volunteers so they are ordinary citizens who have gone through training. His posse has done some really good things and they always step forward when there is trouble.

Arpaio plan is excellent....his Posse are experienced law enforcement who are volunteers

However, you can bet that liberals and Phony Con Anti Birthers will find a way to attack Arpaio and his Posse
