Have you noticed that these school shootings hardly take place in private schools?

Smaller sample size, less opportunity for serious interpersonal grievance, on-site counselors, private security, and a higher median parental income resulting in less extreme "want-for" among the student base.

Many different reasons, to be sure.

A few:

Students with severe disciplinary issues are [i]generally[/i] not either accepted or are expelled.

Bullying is [i]generally[/i] less of an issue.

Drugs are less of an issue, [i]generally[/i].

Parents are spending money so they are more likely, [i]generally[/i], to take a greater interest in how a kids is doing academically.

Academic probation insures that kids with learning issues either are given additional help (or parents may get private tutoring, too) or, [i]generally[/i], the ones who are lazy or really badly disinterested in learning aren't going to be at the school very long.

Private security, less students, high incomes in parents....that’s not to say I think private schools are any better than public schools though...it was common knowledge that even the most prestigious private schools around me growing up had severe drug problems. (Painkillers, Xanax, cocaine, morphine, etc)

I’ve noticed that school shootings hardly take place anywhere other than the United States. I wonder what those countries do different? 🤔

No parents around I guess

Body count.
