New Hampshire has no law prohibiting persons who are not pupils from possessing firearms in a school zone. Any pupil who brings or possesses a firearm – concealed or otherwise – in a safe school zone (any school property or school bus) without written authorization from the superintendent shall be expelled from school by the local school board for at least 12 months.¹
