    Question: What's the maximum size of a knife that you can carry to school?

    Answer: All public schools have rules that prohibit students from possessing weapons at school. A knife is considered to be a weapon, but some schools have created an exception for a folding knife with a blade length of two and one-half inches or less. Other schools prohibit knives of any length.

    The disciplinary consequences of violating a school's weapon policy can be very severe, including mandatory expulsion from school. Therefore, a student who routinely carries a pocket knife should check the student handbook or the district policy on weapons before bringing a knife to school.

    I think you should be allowed to carry a pocket knife to school. Though I was suspended for 2 days because I was carrying a knife of only 3 and a half inches long. That I only use for work but they didnt see it that way so I was suspended. Though in our student handbook it says that an illegal knife in our school in 5 inches long. I misunderstood so I think that students should be allowed to carry knives on them to school but only for work purposes.

    The biggest reason I'd bring a knife to school for is to protct myself from other people who would try to pull a similar weapon on me, if not I would have no protection, and they'd have no reason to hurt me severely.
