Staying Home Corporation creates bulletproof storm shelter to keep students safe

HARRISONVILLE, Mo. (KSHB/CNN) - One school in Missouri is testing a bulletproof storm shelter in the classroom to help keep students safe.

It's been shot at with an AK-47 and armor-piercing rounds from a 30-06. No bullets penetrated the steel.

And even wooden 2 x4s have been blasted at the outside of this shelter at EF-5 tornado wind speeds.

Today, students got to grade the hide-away shelter.
