The deadly school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in February sparked a national debate over gun reform and prompted thousands of students to call for changes.

Now, three months later, another deadly shooting has unfolded at a high school -- this time in Texas.

As details about the latest shooting, at Santa Fe High School in Texas, continue to unfold, questions will undoubtedly be raised about what reforms could have stopped such a massacre.

While the Feb. 14 shooting in Parkland, Florida, remains the deadliest school shooting of the year, there are others besides today's shooting that have left people dead on school grounds since Parkland.

There are a number of ways to classify school shootings, with some lists including shootings where individuals were injured but not killed, or any incident where a weapon was fired, or instances of suicides that took place on campus.

The list below includes only fatal shootings that happened at U.S. schools starting with Parkland and continuing to today. Suicides or instances where suspects who had not killed anyone were killed by police are not included.
