K-12 Education: Characteristics of School Shootings

  Premium   Download PDF Now (58 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date June 9, 2020
Release Date July 9, 2020
Report No. GAO-20-455
Summary:

We examined school shootings and found:

Half were committed by current or former students

Suburban and rural, wealthier, and low-minority schools had more school-targeted shootings; such shootings were the most fatal and most commonly committed by students

Urban, poor, and high-minority schools had more shootings overall and more motivated by disputes; these shootings were often committed by non-students or unknown shooters

More shootings happened outside, but those inside schools were usually more deadly

We found no empirical research from 2009-2019 that directly examined the link between school discipline and school shootings.
