Secure rooms and lock-down areas / hallways would be the most effective; yes it could lock folks down at the same time, but then you would have secure rooms in each area.

Just no one expects children to be attacked, so the security has gone to high schools and the like...

A big deal is being made about security in the schools. But at the two local schools, if one wanted to get at the kids, just wait until school is over and the kids leave. A large number of kids in a mass of kids coming out of the school, heading to the school buses, parent's cars, and those going to walk home. Or go to the Friday night foot ball game, many parents, but even more kids (and adults) all massed in one group, unable to move freely.

I have picked up my two grand kids at their school in Greensburg, PA. Fine - I have a sign I put in the driver's window, I drive up to the door and then the teacher sends the two grandkids out. The next car follows the same system, and so on. The rest are still inside the building. School buses load from three different doors. That has been the system for at least the last 4 years. And they have not had any problems.

A lot of difference between the school there and the two schools here.
