It has recently been brought to my attention that even the school board in the state of Georgia cannot prevent an employee from carrying a concealed weapon in their auto even on school property
It depends. A few states have passed laws that prevent employers from banning weapons in vehicles on the property, but in many states, it is not illegal and an employer can enforce basically any restrictions they see fit on their own property.
What were the circumstances? What he carrying in a prohibited location? Was he carrying a prohibited weapon?

No! ANYONE carrying a rilfe concealed in, or under, a piece of clothing is violating the law, and carrying a concealed weapon.
Carrying Concealed Weapon, Zero Tolerance Carrying a weapon in a strict controlled area: government buildings, schools, etc.
I would honestly think so because the person who caught you won't know if you were going to shoot someone or not Laws vary from place to place. If it is concealed and you don't have a permit, chances are that it is going to be a felony in most states. And carrying a weapon in certainly places can also be a felony (post offices).
What do you want to know about the concealed carry law in PA? You can carry a concealed weapon only if you have a permit issued from the county you live in. Also, other states reciprocate with PA in carrying a concealed weapon. I don't know all of the states, but there are quite a few. If you have any other questions about carrying in PA, e-mail me at GunMan760@aol.com, and I will find out what I can.
It depends on the weapon and how you are charged. Depending on the circumstances, it can be a misdemeanor carrying a fine of about $500 and/or six months in jail, to a felony, carrying several years in jail.
The way the question reads is that you were charged with felony offenses that you allegedly committed while you were carrying a concealed weapon at the time. Because the fact that the felony offenses were dropped does not negate the fact that you were carrying an unlawful firearm. That charge is still valid. It is quite possible that the felony effenses were dropped because the case for the concealed weapon was stronger and easier to prove.
Hall of Famer Frank Robinson plead guilty and was convicted of carrying a concealed weapon in Cincinnati in early 1961. He was fined $250 and got no jail time.
If the weapon cannot be readily observed by a casual glance - it is concealed!
