It would be nice if they'd list, separately, how many of these are shootings that actually happened during school hours with students or faculty involved rather than just like, unrelated adults shooting one another in a school zone at night. Both are bad, certainly, but it's kind of undercutting the issue to pretend one is the other when reporting the statistics. Whether that substantially pads the statistics or not, it would be good to know.
I will look into the raw data later this week. Gun Violence Archive has a lot of data, but that might not be available.
