In the wake of the school shooting in Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas and the failure of police to limit the elementary school massacre, many ideas were presented to prevent similar tragedies.
Perhaps the stupidest was suggested by Senator Ted Cruz and former President Donald Trump. Of course, Senator Cruz should get credit for being first.
Trump’s suggestion that school buildings should have just one entrance echoes calls from U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz earlier this week. School and safety experts say that such a measure is unrealistic, as many schools have thousands of individuals who could take hours to go in and out of buildings. As a result, a single entrance could also pose a fire hazard. Older schools would also need to spend significant money renovating their buildings to meet such a standard.

There are many situations where schools need to be evacuated quickly. Fires and bomb threats come to mind but there are others.
