An elementary school in Alabama is using bulletproof safe rooms to protect students if there's an active shooter.in Alabama has installed bulletproof safe rooms in two classrooms to protect students in the event of an active shooter.
The shelters are 8-by-8 foot rooms built with ballistic material that can stop any bullet that's been used in a school shooting to date. Dry erase material is on the outside so the rooms blend in with the classroom. Thomas says he started working on the idea after a conversation with his wife after 21 people, including 19 children
The shelter can hold up to 60 elementary school aged children, 45 middle schoolers, or 30 high school students. The shelter is collapsible and can lie against the wall, or it can be set up in a corner as a reading or free time room. A teacher demonstrates how she can deploy the shelter if there's an emergency.
