8. Ohio Teachers Can Now Bring Guns to Class After Just 24 Hours of Training

Educators and other school staff in the state of Ohio will now be able to carry a gun in the classroom after undergoing 24 hours of training.

Republican Governor Mike DeWine announced that he had signed House Bill 99 (HB99) into law Monday morning, according to multiple outlets.

The law, according to the outlet, changes the number of required training hours needed for school personnel to carry a gun. Originally, 700 hours of training was required and, with the signing of the new law, school personnel who want to be armed will have to undergo 20 hours of first aid training as well as four hours in "scenario-based training," outlets reported.

Additionally, with the new law, those members of school staff who do decide to arm themselves in the classroom will be subject to eight hours of annual "qualification training," according to WKYC.
