Can you carry a gun into the parking lot of private school?

The legality of carrying a firearm into the parking lot of a private school depends on the specific laws of your state and the school's policies. Generally speaking, it is not legal to carry a firearm on school grounds, including parking lots, without the express permission of the school administration. Some states may have laws that specifically prohibit firearms on school property, while others may have laws that allow school administrators to establish their own policies regarding firearms. Additionally, some private schools may have their own policies that restrict or prohibit the carrying of firearms on school grounds. It is important to research the laws in your state and the policies of the specific private school in question to ensure that you are in compliance with all applicable firearm regulations.
