Interesting thread revival from 2009.TxAggieEngineer wrote:I've had this same question. The problem is not the CHL/LTC statues but that the Texas Administrative Code that covers child care facilities. Section 746.3707(b) states that firearms are "prohibited on the premises of the child-care center, unless the child-care center is also your residence".
In my opinion, this conflicts with the CHL statutes so I contacted the Attorney General's office, who referred me to the county attorney, who then referred me to the sheriff's office. I spoke with a deputy and was told that 746.3707(b) takes precedence and that LTC holders are not permitted to carry there.
But this one has been asked and answered since then:

It is not against the law to carry. Administrative code is not criminal code. Could they lose their license if they knowingly allow it? Possibly.
Now if this preschool is also a school (as in the case of the place my daughter went), then no, you cannot carry into the buildings or at a school function.
Dropping off kids is not a school function. I can walk up to the door of my daughter's elementary school armed. I can visit with other armed parents in the playground there. But I cannot step inside, even just to visit the bathroom for a minute, if I am armed.
