I am an employee for a public school system in Virginia. I was planning to start keeping a pistol in my glove box (legally) while working, so I'd have it on my way to and from work. I thought I had better check my school district's "Policies" and found this gem:
Now I wonder, what's the point of repealing "school property" laws when the schools themselves seem to want to be vulnerable! :banghead:
Hear endeth the rant.
STAFF WEAPONS IN SCHOOL
No one may possess or use any firearm or any weapon, as defined in Policy JFCD, on school property (including school vehicles), on that portion of any property open to the public and then exclusively used for school-sponsored functions or extracurricular activities while such functions or activities are taking place; or any school bus without authorization of the Superintendent or his designee.
Violation of this policy by an employee will result in appropriate personnel action up to and including dismissal. Violation of this policy by others will result in actions up to and including a prohibition against the violator returning to school property. In addition, illegal conduct will be reported as required by law.
