Just be sure you know that there's a catch. A catch that could be problematic under the right circumstances.
FEDERAL law makes it illegal to possess a gun within 1000 feet of a school zone.
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/922#q
It shall be unlawful for any individual knowingly to possess a firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or foreign commerce at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone.
Federal law defines a school zone to be any area within 1000 feet of a school.
There's an exception in the law for those with qualifying state licenses to carry. The law does not apply...
...if the individual possessing the firearm is licensed to do so by the State in which the school zone is located or a political subdivision of the State, and the law of the State or political subdivision requires that, before an individual obtains such a license, the law enforcement authorities of the State or political subdivision verify that the individual is qualified under law to receive the license;
There's also an exception to possessing a firearm on private property within the school zone that isn't part of the school, so you can carry on your own property if you live near a school.
Otherwise, unless you plan to ensure that you never get within 1000 feet of a school, you can't legally carry without a qualifying state permit--in ANY state. To comply with the law if you don't have a qualifying state issued permit to carry, your gun needs to be unloaded and locked up any time the federal gun free school zone law applies.
Some food for thought.
