TOBACCO/NICOTINE-FREE ENVIRONMENT
Tobacco and nicotine use, including the use of look alikes where the original would include the use of nicotine products that are not FDA (Federal Drug Administration) approved for tobacco cessation, is prohibited on school district facilities and grounds, including school vehicles. This requirement extends to students, employees and visitors. This policy applies at all times, including school-sponsored and nonschool-sponsored events. Persons failing to abide by this request are required to extinguish their smoking material, dispose of the tobacco, nicotine or other product or leave the school district premises immediately. It is the responsibility of the administration to enforce this policy.
