This exact situation showed how messed up that training was. Now all officers are supposed to be trained how to react to this kind of a thing immediately, preferably with a partner.

I would dare say that if that deputy was actually in the school when the shooting started, there may have been a totally different result. New age training or not.
Also new training is for responding officers to enter in immediately and not wait. Big difference from then to know.
