You are correct. Even though Texas may have reciprocity with Oklahoma, if you're carrying within 1,000 feet of a school in Oklahoma then you're in violation of the GFSZA unless you also have an Oklahoma CHL.
Yes, and it also means if you have a CHL from a state recognized by Texas, but no Texas CHL, you are in violation of the GFSZA in Texas.

Without CHL you can not come within 1000 feet of a school with a firearm. (Unless something has changed recently).
