CCW on school property over the weekend

My church has grown out of our building and we are currently renting an elementary school gym to meet in. Just wondering if anyone has dealt with this kind of situation being an outside group using school facilities. Is there a way to legally carry strictly only on Sunday?



Finally found the right spot to post this. Non-related to guns...is there a way to delete a post on the wrong forum?

Given the information (or lack of information) provided, nobody can provide an accurate answer to your question because it is strictly a matter of state law so long as you possess a license to carry issued by the same state the school is located in.
 
It would all depend on the state laws in your state.

In NC, a school is a school 24/7/365 and carry on school grounds is illegal 24/7/365.
 
I am not advocating doing something illegal, but do any of you think the half crazed lunatic that's in the middle of a bad divorce and wants to waste his soon to be EX cares how many other church goers he take with him, IF it really is against the law to have your gun on you while in church being on school property, you have to decide if you want to be safe or legal, as I said I will not tell another to go against the law but for me, if that sort of thing came up I would rather have more in my pocket than a cell phone

The property is still owned by the school. You will need the school board's express permission to carry the firearm inside the school building. I would recommend getting it in writing.
 
While getting permission in writing is best, it's not required. You will also need the permission of your pastor or the church board to carry in church. If the property is a private school, it may be easier to get permission. (It's not always the case. But, a lot of private schools seem to be more conservative here in the south.)
