Finally, a GA. school board is publically allowing personnel to carry in schools. Hopeful this trend continues.

At its April 12 meeting, Laurens County's school board passed a resolution to "authorize certain personnel to possess or carry weapons on any property or in any building owned or leased by the district, at a school function, or on a bus or other transportation furnished by the district."
Although other Georgia school systems, such as Floyd and Bleckley, raised the possibility after the Parkland, Fla., school shooting in February, metro Atlanta districts have rejected the idea.
Laurens appears to be the first in the state to allow firearms at school other than those carried by police.
