My wife is a 5th grade teacher. I would say I agree but the country isn't their yet. They fear a loose cannon teacher over a lone gunman. One loose cannon teacher and the entire country would want to ban guns. I definatly understand the need because teachers especially in high school are under a constant threat.
Not just highschool; my wife taught at an 'inner city' middle school (7th grade) for one year and that was enough. She had kids threaten to follow her to her car, and all sorts of other things. She doesn't want to carry a gun, but she does want the principal or willing teachers to carry.
I never felt the need to carry before I did a tour in the sandbox; now I feel much less comfortable without one.

Yeah when my wife was student teaching she had to teach over in Pensacola for some of her college and she had a kid who was what they classified as a stabber. He had tried to stab teachers with objects and things of that nature and it was middle school. With 5th graders it's really only the parents that become enraged but the mass killing objective at schools make them a target which is unfortunate. TSA level security in high schools might become the norm one day.
