Any student in New Hampshire who possesses a pellet or BB gun, rifle, or paint ball gun in a safe school zone (any school property or school bus) may be expelled by the local school board. The student may not attend school until restored by the local board.¹ New Hampshire does not otherwise regulate non-powder guns.
