Re: Is this considered a "School" ?

rdhetrick wrote:Quick and short question:

My daughter takes swimming lessons on Saturday mornings. The facility is called "Blah Blah Blah Swim School." For purposes of concealed carry, does this fall under the category of "Schools"? She also takes karate lessons and that place is called some sort of "Sports Center". The sports center has a gunbuster logo.

What do you think, is it legal to carry at these places or not? My thought is that it is okay to carry. While it might have the word "School" in the name, I don't think it falls under the school category in the laws. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks in advance!
I am not a lawyer, but general consensus is no. I hold to the rule that unless it is a public or privet learning institution accredited by the Texas Education Agency or the agency that accredits private schools recognized by the state, then it is NOT a school per the intent of the statute.
