(CNN) — The vast majority of America’s teachers don’t want to carry a gun in the classroom, despite recent violence.
That’s from a survey by School Improvement Network, a company that helps with teacher training.
It talked with nearly 11,000 educators.
- 72 percent said they wouldn’t carry a gun in school even if they were allowed.
- 36 percent of educators surveyed reported owning a firearm.
- 92 percent said they feel safe in school and believe their students feel the same.
- 88 percent said they would feel even more safe having an armed police officer on campus.
The survey was conducted in January, weeks after the Dec. 14 school shooting in Connecticut.
