A terribly irresponsible idea indeed:
When North Atlanta High School in Georgia opened its doors on Wednesday, students were greeted by a number of unusual features: a 900-car parking deck, a broadcast and video center, and an indoor shooting range.
The high school recently switched locations at a cost of $147 million, making it the most expensive public high school ever built in Georgia, according to The New York Times. While the 11-story school offers state-of-the-art facilities, the specific decision to put in the shooting range, which will be used by the Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program and the rifle team, has elicited media attention and some parental concern.
“I’ll probably question it a little bit just to get a better idea,” said parent Donna Jones, according to local outlet WSB-TV. “Like I said, I didn’t understand why they’re going to be doing that, but I think they’re going to be very careful in protecting the students.”
Others are confident that the shooting range will be safe. “I can see why they would be concerned, but I know they go through lots of training and they’re heavily supervised,” high school senior Turner Hume told WSB-TV.
