Durango: How to Be Good Little Targets Deal with Gun Violence in School

To clarify: This is in Durango, Mexico...

In basic education schools safety drills will be implemented as preventive measures against acts of violence, said the head of the Ministry of Education in the state, Jose Luis Gonzalez de la Vega Otero.
I'm missing something: how are these measures preventing acts of violence?
In an interview after attending the opening of the twentieth regular session of the South Central Regional Council (ANUIES), the state official announced yesterday that along with the state Public Safety Department elementary school Jose Marti in Chilpancingo began drills.

In that school, a shooting was simulated and trainers asked the more than 744 students, 28 faculty and staff as well as 12 parents participated such as promptly obeying signals and noticing the signs such as lying on the ground until the shooting stops.
Placing the kids neatly in rows makes them better targets, so that's a plan. And stay calm. Nothing prevents a .223 bullet like not panicking and nothing allows bullets to fly like not laying down in neatly arranged rows.

#1  Are we talking about the public school system? Half the kids are already armed. Give them marksmen training.
