Back when I was still in high school I always used to joke that everyone should have a heavy metal object near their desk that they could throw if a gunman entered the room.
But all in all i doubt it's a good idea. Maybe on an individual basis if the parent wants to, but training school kids in violence won't end violence...
Anyways, the kind of training that would really help defend against gunman isn't really feasible for school (mostly psychologically).
