SMOKE-FREE ENVIRONMENT
School district facilities, including school vehicles and school grounds, are off limits for tobacco use, including the use of nicotine products that are not FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved for tobacco cessation. This requirement extends to students, employees and visitors. This policy applies at all times, including school-sponsored and non-school-sponsored events. Persons failing to abide by this request are required to extinguish their smoking material, dispose of the tobacco/nicotene product, or leave the school district premises immediately. It is the responsibility of the administration to enforce this policy.
