United States school shootings, 1990-present. This page gives an overview of U.S. school shootings that have taken place since 1990. The information represents shootings that have occurred in K-12 schools and district offices and does not detail college or university shootings.
When it comes to American children being exposed to gunfire, these shootings are just the tip of the iceberg. A report by the Urban Institute showed that in the single school district of Washington, DC, there were at least 336 gunshots in the vicinity of schools over a single school year. And school shootings have long-term impacts on the school community as a whole: a recent analysis of school shootings found that those involving a homicide reduced student enrollment in the affected schools, and depressed studentsâ standardized test scores by nearly 5 percent.
