The only problem with running away is when a gunman picks one classroom (it doesn't really matter if it is on the first or second floor, you can't get 30 kids out of the window or door before the gunman shoots them. He would probably walk in and block the escape through the only door. Anybody who comes near him would get shot.

If a few kids did manage to throw stuff and jump on the guy, the rest of them would run away, leaving three or four kids that will either stop the guy until cops can show up, or they will be killed by a pissed off gunman.

So neither idea is really the perfect solution.

My best idea would be for cops to use thermal imaging sniper rifle scopes and take out the gunman through a window. Then storm in and take control of the situation. That is unless the gunman is already shooting, then running away or attacking the gunman and hoping others will help is the way to go.
