Teachers in Israel carry their own AR-15 rifles into school. Surprise, surprise they never have school shootings.
As far as something "mandatory", I think a complete firearms safety course (INCLUDING some actual shooting experience at a range) should be a mandatory school requirement.
Instead of being attracted to the "mystique" of dad's forbidden gun (as well as having Hollywood lunacy as their only "knowledge" of firearms), the kids would know what a gun can really do if mishandled. Also the kids would have no interest in dad's gun because it's nothing new to them.
Think how much better off we all would be if kids had knowledge instead of legally mandated fear and ignorance!
