What is Indiana's stance on the possession of firearms in schools?

  1. Permitted for concealed carry license holders

  2. Unrestricted for anyone

  3. Strictly prohibited

  4. Allowed for educational purposes

The correct answer is: Strictly prohibited

Indiana law strictly prohibits the possession of firearms on school property. This regulation is designed to maintain a safe environment for students and staff and to prevent potential violence or accidents related to firearms within educational settings. The law is clear that individuals are not allowed to carry firearms on school grounds, which includes both public and private K-12 schools. This restriction applies to all individuals, regardless of whether they have a concealed carry license. Indiana has made exceptions in some areas regarding firearms on certain school property, such as in vehicles parked on school grounds, but the general rule remains a prohibition on direct possession of firearms. By encouraging a gun-free zone in schools, Indiana aims to prioritize student safety and reduce the potential for firearm-related incidents in these sensitive environments. Other options suggesting permissive or unrestricted carrying of firearms in schools would contradict this fundamental aspect of Indiana's gun laws.
