Tobacco-Free School Environment (Montgomery County School District)

Abstract:
These regulations require each local school system to maintain a tobacco-free school environment. The sale or use of tobacco in any form is prohibited in school buildings, on school grounds at all times during the official school day. The official school day, school buildings, school grounds, and tobacco have been defined. Each local school will post a notification to students, staff, and the general public that school buildings are tobacco-free. The State Department will develop guidelines to assist local schools in implementing a tobacco-free environment. Smoking cessation classes will be available to all employees. Each local superintendent of schools will certify in writing to the State Superintendent of Schools that Regulations .01--.07 are implemented by September 1, 1993.
