Protective Spray Devices

Under RCW 9.91.160, students age 14 years and older may legally possess personal protective spray devices (Mace and pepper spray) if that student has parent permission. Schools may not prohibit the possession of personal protection spray devices if the student is at least 14 years of age with parent permission, or any person age 18 or older. Parents/guardians who want their child to carry such a device must provide the school with a letter stating the student’s name, the type of device to be carried, the expiration date, if any, and the reason the child should carry the device. This letter must be provided to the school each year and will be kept in the student’s file. A notation will also be added to the student’s profile in illuminate. While carrying a protective device is permitted under these circumstances, use of the device may result in discipline, depending on the situation.
