Photo: Jack Dempsey/AP Today marks 25 years since two students fatally shot 12 classmates, a teacher, and wounded more than 20 others at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., Axios Denver's Alayna Alvarez writes. The 1999 tragedy has become a blueprint for other shooters over the last quarter-century, and school gun violence has only gotten worse. In 1999, there were 23 firearm incidents and 63 deaths or injuries from such incidents at K-12 schools, according to the K-12 School Shooting Database. In 2023, there were 348 incidents and 249 victims.

Members phkrause Posted April 27 Author Members Share Posted April 27 School shooting mirrors others in D-FW Arlington's Bowie High School was the site of another school shooting this week. Photo: Chris Torres/Fort Worth Star-Telegram/Tribune News Service via Getty Images An 18-year-old Arlington high school student was killed this week in a school shooting that mirrors others across North Texas. Why it matters: School lockdowns and increased security have become the norm on Texas campuses after high-profile mass shootings but the measures haven't stopped violence among students. State of play: Dallas high school students recently walked out of Wilmer-Hutchins High School where a student had been shot the week before to urge school leaders to do more to protect them. "Our children are supposed to bury us. We're not supposed to bury them," Dallas ISD trustee Maxie Johnson, whose son died in a 2019 Oak Cliff shooting, said at a recent community meeting about the Wilmer-Hutchins shooting. The big picture: The Republican-led state Legislature passed new mental health and school safety standards last year after 19 students and two teachers were killed at Robb Elementary in Uvalde. A key provision required districts to post an armed officer at every public school, but many Texas school districts can't afford to hire additional officers. The latest: A shooting was reported Wednesday at Bowie High School, and when school resource officers arrived, they found Etavion Barnes injured near a portable classroom. He was pronounced dead at the hospital. The alleged shooter, 17-year-old Julian Howard, was arrested near the school and faces a murder charge. Police said the motive was under investigation. It appeared the students knew each other. What they're saying: "We, as a community, cannot tolerate this kind of violence. Not in our neighborhoods and not in our schools. Violence is never the right answer," Arlington Police chief Al Jones said in a statement. Between the lines: Even safety measures — like adding metal detectors — haven't been foolproof. Wilmer-Hutchins High School has metal detectors and a clear bag policy, but a student was still able to bring a gun to school weeks ago. The student shot another in the leg inside a classroom. How to help: The American School Counselor Association has these resources for helping students after a school shooting.
