Intention counts for nothing? A teacher will at least be making an effort to aim towards the bad guy, and will stop shooting when the bad guy stops moving.
The bad guy is aiming specifically for the kids, and if history is any guide, they'll keep going so long as they've got ammunition and targets.

Unless they want to protect themselves while they're at work.

They don't even need tools. A sufficiently beefy guy could harm or kill plenty of students (especially at the younger ages) with his bare hands.
