Just realized I sort of hijacked the thread. My apologies to the OP.

This link http://www.texasguntalk.com/forums/texa ... 011-a.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; has a good summary and text of the Parking Lot Bill. School districts are one of the exceptions to the law. Don't know that we'll ever be able to convince the lawmakers to consider letting responsible citizens protect themselves and others in schools. We have a full time liaison officer at our middle school who is armed, but he is one person. I'm in an isolated part of the building, far away from his office, and I really worry about what would happen if one of the kids went "off".

Now that you have asked, you have put it on the radar and they may make it policy. Additonally, they have now given you notice and you are basically banned until the person who told you that you couldn't no longer works there...unless they put it in writing...in which case you are banned until you no longer work there. IANL...but that is my understanding. Shoulda asked here first.

In my district it already is in writing (albeit deeply buried in many pages of policies). I asked because my CHL instructor told me I was fine to leave my firearm secured in my car, but I wanted to make sure. I don't believe that when dealing with a school district "don't ask, don't tell" is a wise choice.

I asked. They said no.

You will never stop thinking about it, but you will stop obsessing about it.

That hard, heavy lump on your belt will very quickly stop being a nuisance and become very comforting.

That's for sure! I went back to work today (I'm a teacher) and REALLY MISSED it!
