If one objects to this because they are worried that a teacher might shoot their child, perhaps we need to look at our teachers and those that would shoot a child be "let go." Yes, not all teachers want to carry, I am okay with that. Some will for the right reasons, they should be allowed to carry.
My wife very likely wouldn't want to carry, but if any other teachers know what they're doing and want to I'd be okay with that. Especially if it would make someone think before they decided to go shoot up a school.
All Oklahoma Teachers, Staff and Adm. should be required to Open Carry when on School Property.

To prevent the mass slaughter of children?
Good intentions, but I'm not sure I'd go that far. Some teachers can barely handle classroom discipline/management and their rowdy kids as it is now. I can only imagine how some of them would fail if they had to worry about a visible side arm and some random bully teenager trying to grab it.
No...For many reasons. Liability is one of the main reasons. It would be a grand day for lawyers.
That’s their job?
Didn’t see that on my job description.
You asked why they'd want to carry. My answer was, to potentially prevent a slaughter of children. Regardless of whether that 'duty' was spelled out in a job description.
No teacher should be required to carry. But those that are willing and able to proficiently do so should be allowed to, imo.
