The Rise of School Shooting in America – The Grim Reality

The rise of school shootings in the US in the past few years has been a cause of great concern. According to a new federal report by the National Center for Education Statistics, school shootings in 2020-21 rose to the highest number in two decades. The report found that there were at least 93 incidents with casualties at public and private schools across the United States in 2020-21, which is a significant increase from the 23 incidents recorded in the 2000-01 school year. This alarming trend highlights the urgent need for effective prevention strategies to ensure the safety of students and staff in schools. Measures like threat assessment protocols and enhanced security measures can help mitigate such incidents and minimize the harm caused by such events.
