Tbh some schools used to, kinda. All the ones around me used to have a rifle team until the early-mid 00s (some got rid of it earlier). I'm not sure they're allowed to anymore now that schools are federally mandated gun free zones (which seems to be the only thing that mandate stopped by the looks of it.)
My high school required a firearms safety class to graduate. Not sure if that had changed since it’s in an area where everyone hunts.
Was that recent? They all did around here too but stopped, and we have a lot of hunters too. Hopefully they still do!
Not really all that recent (mid to late 00s). Unfortunately I don't really know anyone in the area anymore to ask if they still teach or require it.
Yeah that was around when they disappeared around here, maybe even a bit before that. Well hopefully they do still have it, it can come in handy.
