Supreme Court of Ohio ruling requires teachers to undergo more extensive training to carry firearms at school
On June 23, 2021, the Supreme Court of Ohio issued a decision in the Gabbard et al. v. Madison Local School District Board of Education et al. case interpreting the Ohio Revised Code to require teachers to undergo a full peace-officer training course before a school district may authorize them to carry a firearm on school premises; a much more stringent training standard than what most districts seeking to arm teachers are currently providing.
