As an elective course - sure. But required - probably not.
I wouldn't have a problem with it in a rural area where people are likely to use guns...but as a general policy, I'd say no. There wouldn't really be much use for such a course in the heart of a big city, where people don't typically grow up using guns on a regular basis.
I think it should be taught in schools, but as an elective course.
I think parents who own firearms would be wise to make sure their children are proficient in firearms safety, whether they get that info through school or other avenues.
I think parents that don't own firearms should make damn sure their child isn't ignorant about firearm safety, so they won't get themselves shot by someone playing with a loaded gun, like themselves.
After all, we don't want ignorant kids, do we? Especially not dead ones.
Basic firearms safety should be taight in every public school, at several different grade levels, to a degree approproate to the age of the students in question.
Doing so will save lives.
It should be optional like sex education.

Sex education is almost always required in public schools - and I say 'almost always' because I have to allow for the possibility that there is -one- where it is not.It shouldn't be required like math. It should be optional like sex education.
People keep babbling that schools, not parents, absolutely MUST teach students about sex because, among other things, the deadly diseases the perverts have introduced into the species.
Since guns are by their very design very deadly objects indeed, isn't it incumbent on a society with a Constitutional guarantee of uninfringed gun ownsership to ensure that all citizens are familiar with the rudiments of firearms, for their own safety?
Or are you claiming that ignorance about the deadly nature of sex is evil, but ignorance about the deadly nature of guns is sublime?
Well, ignorance is never sublime.

No. If we allowed this then whats next? Interactive sex classes? Hand to Hand combat?
The only things that should be taught in schools are science, history, math, reading.

I'm not sure about everywhere, but sex ed isn't optional in my state. Although I'm inclined to think it should be an elective, myself.
yeah.
We all know the US Army didn't train it's field surgeon in the trauma units of Washington DC, but in Russell Kansas, because Russell Kansas was famous for being the gunshot murder capital of the world.
No.
Wait.
Metropolitan DC WAS where the Army trained it's field surgeons because the nation's capital was also the world's murder capital, for the longest time, probably ever since the city imposed those incredibly effective gun bans that made it illegal for criminals to own guns.
