Many of the mass shootings at schools from 2008 to 2017 could have been prevented, U.S. Secret Service says in new report.

"Protecting America's Schools: A U.S. Secret Service Analysis of Targeted School Violence," dives deep into nine years of school tragedies, and it advocates for schools to establish comprehensive targeted violence prevention programs.

"It's really the behaviors ... that's what we focus on," Alathari told ABC News in an interview."There is no one, accurate, useful profile of a student attacker." Despite widespread personality traits, the most common motive for attackers involved a grievance with classmates. Nearly all of the attackers in that period were also dealing with a family issue at home, such as divorce proceedings or an incarcerated family member.

The data used in the report came from 24 instances of mass school attacks in the U.S. The Secret Service defines a mass attack as harm to three or more persons, excluding the attacker. The school resource officers in nearly half the cases were on duty at the school and were able to respond to 25% of the cases. But notably, none of the attacks were stopped by intervention from external law enforcement.
