is an issue because far too many schools across 
		the nation have faced gun violence and shootings. Far too many students 
		unfornately go to school in fear of their life day-to-day. Violence and 
		trauma in schools can affect students' overall health and well-being as 
		well as their educational outcomes.
		
		
 
		Making school's 
		safe will be important for improving overall 
		student physical and mental health, educational success, and for 
		student's to go to school without the fear of gun violence and 
		shootings.
