A few reasons; when professionals fire guns at people, most of the shots don't actually hit the people they're aiming at, so in an environment with mass panic and kids fleeing everywhere you're now adding another gun into the equation which just doesn't make anyone safer.

What happens if a couple of kids decide to overpower a teacher and take their gun from them?

Again, when professionals deal with these situations, they don't just send one person in to fire back, they secure areas and methodically work their way towards the gunmen (any situation not just schools).

What happens if the professionals arriving at the scene just see a person firing/holding a gun and have a split second to make a decision?

They had an armed guard at columbine, they had armed guards in Florida.

But yno **** logic.
