Are you going to do that at every exit?The school area needs to be secure from entry. Armed guards alone aren't enough. They have to react to an active shooter to be effective. Stop the shooter from getting inside to begin with.
Use electronic ID badges as the first gate, then pass into an enclosed metal detection area. This area is under guard and that guard allows final access into the school. This guard is behind bullet proof glass with gun ports.
All entry points. Half secured isn't secured at all. Exit only points can be differentiated by one way turnstiles for rapid volume exit. Armed security entry points would also have a main gate that the guard can actuate for evacuation purposes.
Also window entry must be dealt with. Windows would be barred with the teacher having a release code or key. You can't expect a shooter to follow the rules and only come through the gates, now can you?
