Surrounded by educational material and Ohio State ephemera, a biometric gun safe is mounted to the wall in superintedent John Scheu's office at the Board of Education Office in Sidney, Ohio on December 5, 2017.

After Sandy Hook, Sidney City Schools began implementing security measures that include an anonymous 40 school employees, both administrators and teachers, district-wide, trained in tactical defensive shooting. The schools have Glock 19 handguns with multiple magazines lokced in biometric (fingerprint) safes hidden in the buildings, alongside bulletproof vests.

The middle school's School Resource Officer, Deputy Rick Cron, noted that in the case of a school shooting, a teacher can be armed and in a position to confront the threat in under a minute, while it might take as long as 5-10 minutes before law enforcement can reach the site.
