I would only add.......if I were a school teacher and my superior -the principle of my school - asked me to carry, anything in writing with his/her signature would suffice for MY authority to carry with a CHL. It then becomes his/her issue. In the meantime the kids in my class are protected.
The objective is to prevent anymore Sandy Hook's from occuring. The details may take some time to iron out.

Re: What is the Legal Process for School Carry
Any statutory authorization for a CHL teacher to carry would have to originate with the highest authority within the ISD - the school board - unless a preemptive legislative, or executive exception was established at the State level.

Re: What is the Legal Process for School Carry
Yes, pursuant to statute that is the procedure. While discussions, and meetings proceed - precisely WHAT , WHO is protecting our school children TODAY as we speak ?
In the thousands of schools in Texas - what protection stands between the lives of our children and another marauding murderer ? That is THE QUESTION BEGGING A RESPONSE.

Re: What is the Legal Process for School Carry
I contacted the Governor's office this morning regarding the possibility of Governor Perry taking emergency executive action in order to provide immediate armed protection for children in Texas schools.
The proposed emergency executive action I recommended is based upon historical legal precedent dating from late 1800's whereby the Governor was empowered to issue "frontier proclamations " waiving statutory handgun carry restrictions in designated "frontier" zones.
The immediate result of such emergency executive action would be to preempt the statutory need for school administration authority in allowing classroom teachers an exception from 46.03 since they are the last line of defense between our children, and marauding depredations such as happened in Newton, CT.
Sometimes the intermediate solution to a problem already exists. Then we can work on educating the educators into going along with statutory exceptions for teachers, and administrators similar to LEO's. The important thing is to protect our school children NOW. We can hash out comprehensive approaches later.
