I hope so too. And you know some of those shitheads who are always bashing teachers are posting fond memorials to these women on their Facebook pages, when they throw crap on public schools and teachers 24/7 the rest of the year. I work with many wonderful professionals, who I have no doubt would try to save the kids in an emergency. We train all year, with lock downs, fire drills, earthquake drills, so we will be ready. We are also considered first responders- so in a city or state wide emergency, we teachers are required to do what the government asks of us, in a disaster. I don't know if it's like that everywhere, but it's like that here. I'm happy to serve in that capacity. And I would protect my students as I would my own children, because they sort of become my own children. Very few people go in to teaching who don't feel that way, I think.
