NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee House passed a bill on Tuesday that would let some educators bring guns to school after it was held during the previous legislative session. The Senate previously passed the bill.
The bill lets school faculty and staff have concealed handguns at the schools they are assigned to. Educators would need to have a handgun carry permit and have written permission from their director of schools, as well as from the school's principal.
