[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3090634, member: 5412"] It's actually not really small. 18 states allow adults with carry permits to be armed on campus so long as they get proper approval from school officials. -Alabama (which bans possessing a weapon on school grounds only if the carrier has "intent to do bodily harm") -California (with approval of the superintendent) -Connecticut (with approval of "school officials") -Hawaii (no specific law) -Idaho (with school trustees' approval) -Iowa (with "authorization") -Kentucky (with school board approval) -Massachusetts (with approval of the school board or principal) -Mississippi (with school board approval) -Montana (with school trustees' permission) -New Hampshire (ban applies only to pupils, not adults) -New Jersey (with approval from the school's "governing officer") -New York (with the school's approval) -Oregon (with school board approval) -Rhode Island (with a state concealed weapons permit) -Texas (with the school's permission) -Utah (with approval of the "responsible school administrator") -Wyoming (as long as it's not concealed) [URL]https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2018/02/26/heres-a-list-of-school-districts-that-already-allow-teachers-to-be-armed-n2454454[/URL] There are 172 school districts in Texas that allow staff and/or board members to carry firearms on school premises, according to a statewide review of board policies by the Texas Association of School Boards. The Caller-Times requested data on school board policies related to arming staff in the wake of the recent school shooting that killed 17 in Parkland, Florida.
