If you want to feel morally superior to me, then keep right on up with that. If you want to be reasonable about it, pause and think.
My kiddo's daycare has two entrances. One you need a code to get in, the other is kept locked except for teachers bringing kids in/out. And when some lady was apparently noticed taking photos of them playing, they replaced the fencing with one you can't see over or through. Security cameras monitor the outside. That's at least something. It's a small daycare. It's not gonna be a complete shield, but it helps and would give at least something of a chance to get the kids out the back door if a problem was noticed in time.
It's tragically absurd for any school to have 40 free access points.
They completely redid Sandy Hook and at least claim to have tons of security measures beyond what they will tell the public, for obvious reasons.
Five years after the massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, the new Sandy Hook Elementary School building shows off a seamless blend of security and artfulness.

I can't imagine why a district where such a hellish thing happened would still leave so many access points. 40, you say?!
