Let me rephrase.
RCW 9.41.290 and 300 do not seem to address whether or not a school (school district) has the authority to define the boundaries of its facilities. School is mentioned only once in 300 and that reference is for the location of a gun store and its proximity to a school.
What RCW authorizes a school to, or prohibits a school from, defining the boundaries of its own facilities.
RCW 9.41.290 has nothing to do with a school district defining its boundaries and every thing to do with preempting all firearms laws. The Legislature in RCW 9.41.280 3, said (e) Any person in possession of a pistol who has been issued a license under RCW 9.41.070, or is exempt from the licensing requirement by RCW 9.41.060, while picking up or dropping off a student;
The school district can not change that no matter how they define their boundaries.
