Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.
I think that may be an innaccurate paraphrasing.
If I am not mistaken, the idea is that if/when a responsible and law abiding adult who has taken the time and gone through the training, testing, background checks and application process in order to legally CCW, that schools (and other "gun free zones" which have been demonstrated to actually be "defenseless victims zones, any mass murderer will have many minutes before anyone who is equipped to stop the rampage will be able to arrive and intervene") allow those legal and law-abiding holders of CCW to choose whether or not that can/will carry onto the site.
Not the same as "lets put up guard towers, barbed wire and armed guards at schools". Actually, since I was in school, the first two steps have become commonplace. Schools are FAR less open and locked down than when I was a student. I remember in high-school, plenty of trucks in the parking lot (student and staff) with gun racks in the rear-window that had shotguns/rifles in them, depending on what was in season. We didn't have "gun free zones" and we didn't have mass shootings either.
