Rampage killers

This is a list of mass/spree killers who attacked schools. A mass murderer is typically defined as someone who kills three or more people in one incident, with no "cooling off" period.[99][100] A mass murder typically occurs in a single location where one or more persons kill several others.[101][102][103]

This list does not include serial killers, members of democidal governments, or major political figures who orchestrated such actions.
