A Colorado school district is taking extra caution to ensure the safety of its students.
School officials in Hanover, a rural part of the state outside Colorado Springs, voted 3-2 Wednesday in favor of allowing "qualified teachers" to volunteer to be armed on the job, local ABC affiliate KRDO reported.
The measure passed four years to the day after 20 children and six school personnel were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Mark McPherson, president of the Hanover School District's Board of Education, joined Jenna Lee Thursday on "Happening Now" to discuss the resolution.
