Kirk Moore is the principal of Pauls Valley High School in Oklahoma. He is currently newsworthy for his heroic actions in preventing a potential tragedy at the school. Recently, a 20-year-old former student, reportedly obsessed with the Columbine shooting, entered the school armed with two semi-automatic handguns. Surveillance video captured Moore charging and disarming the intruder. During the confrontation, Moore was shot in the leg. Despite his injury, his actions are credited with preventing further harm. In recognition of his bravery and selflessness, students voted to crown him prom king at their recent prom. Moore's actions highlight the potential dangers faced by school staff and the importance of quick thinking and courage in such situations.
