PC §46.03. PLACES WEAPONS PROHIBITED. (a) A person commits an offense

is being conducted,
Is the school admin building part of an "educational institution"? Of course it is.
Is it part of a "school sponsored activity"? I could argue "No", but I'd bet against myself on that one.
No way I'd carry there under current law. YMMV
My OPINION. IANAL.
I am going to land in this camp as well. I know that my eldest son was invited (and did) to display some multimedia art he had created in class, at the administration building for our ISD. In my mind that is an activity sponsored by a school. If there is any chance in heck a kid could be in that building, I don't even want to come close to having to convince a judge or jury that it was okay for me to carry there. Picking out twelve jurors that would agree it was okay, and getting the prosecuting attorney to consent to those twelve jurors, might be a trick. I won't be carrying there any time soon.
