Which statement correctly identifies the Education Code offense related to alcohol on school grounds?

• A. Selling alcohol to a minor is a Class B misdemeanor.
• B. Possessing an alcoholic beverage on school grounds or at a school-related event is a Class C misdemeanor.
• C. Possessing alcohol by a minor on school property is a felony.
• D. Consuming alcohol in a school classroom is a Class A misdemeanor.

Answer: (B)

On-campus alcohol offenses are governed by the Education Code, which sets a specific penalty for possession of an alcoholic beverage on school grounds or at a school-related event. That provision classifies this act as a Class C misdemeanor, a relatively minor offense with a fine but no jail time. This directly matches the statement that describes possessing an alcoholic beverage on school grounds or at a school-related event as a Class C misdemeanor, making it the best choice.

The other scenarios involve different actions (selling to a minor, or consuming or possessing in contexts not tied to the exact Education Code phrasing on school property) and don't align with the Education Code’s on-campus possession rule and its Class C penalty.
