There is not case law that defines exactly what a school is, but it is generally believed to be a public school that is accredited by the Texas Education Agency or a private school that is ceritifed by the Texas Private School Accreditation Commission.

I completely agree with Keith that those accreditation mean that those facilities are school.
What I don't necessarily agree with is that a pre-school doesn't fit the definition of school. The law is often very specific about definitions (such as 30.06), but is fairly vague when it comes to "school". Until they establish case law on it, I'm going to treat all pre-schools like schools.... That's just my conservative cover-my-rear view.

Most pre-schools have kindergarden and require the same immunizations, paperwork, and documentation you would need to attend an accredited elementary school. A prosecutor could make a convincing argument and a jury would find it reasonable to consider a pre-school faucility an educational institution - accredited or not. Until they clarify or change the law to allow CHL's to carry in schools, I wouldn't risk it. Daycares, on the other hand, one could reasonably argue are not a school/educational institution. These are my thoughts, anyway.
