CCW at PRIVATE schools

[ClangClang]

There appear to be two conflicting statutes on the books. Please bear with me for a discussion. (All underlining/red text highlights in this post is mine)

18-12-105.5. Unlawfully carrying a weapon - unlawful possession of weapons - school, college, or university grounds

(1) A person commits a class 6 felony if such person knowingly and unlawfully and without legal authority carries, brings, or has in such person's possession a deadly weapon as defined in section 18-1-901 (3) (e) in or on the real estate and all improvements erected thereon of any public or private elementary, middle, junior high, high, or vocational school or any public or private college, university, or seminary, except for the purpose of presenting an authorized public demonstration or exhibition pursuant to instruction in conjunction with an organized school or class, for the purpose of carrying out the necessary duties and functions of an employee of an educational institution that require the use of a deadly weapon, or for the purpose of participation in an authorized extracurricular activity or on an athletic team.

However, if we look to the more commonly cited statute, we see:

8-12-214. Authority granted by permit - carrying restrictions

(3) A permit issued pursuant to this part 2 does not authorize a person to carry a concealed handgun onto the real property, or into any improvements erected thereon, of a public elementary, middle, junior high, or high school; except that:

Now - here's my question. 8-12-214 makes no mention of private schools. 8-12-105.5 prohibits carry at schools WITHOUT legal authority. Here's the rub - in some cases, "legal authority" is considered to be the CCW permit itself. For instance, CCW is legal on CO public transport by virtue of a CCW permit - that is the required "legal authority."

So, I posit to you, fellow www.ar-15.co members, is concealed carry legal at CO private schools? For the purposes of this discussion, we can assume that the school does not have any posted "no guns" signs or any documented "no guns" policy.
