I hope I am following the rules for this forum. If not I am sure the Mods will do what they feel is right. Hopefully anyone that wishes to comment or answer my question will also follow the rules for this forum.

When reading the Ft. Worth Star Telegram this morning I ran across this.

I was not aware this was an option available to a school district or school. I thought there was a Federal law proclaiming schools to be "No Gun Zones". Can schools option out of the "No Gun Zone".

Per this article this school was able to do this legally. Is this only a Texas thing? Do other states allow this?

I am truely saddend by what happened.
