Use of Tobacco by Students - Regulation

Abstract:
The purpose of this regulation is to establish guidance procedures for the enforcement and administration of tobacco use by all students. No person is allowed to smoke or use tobacco products in any school district building that is used for school attendance. No person is allowed to smoke or use tobacco products outside on school-owned or operated grounds. Beginning August 16, 1996, no student may smoke or use tobacco products in school buses, in buildings or on any school grounds-owned or operated by the district, including parking lots. Students under age 18 may not possess tobacco products while students 18 years of age or older may possess tobacco products. Administrators will not designate an outside smoking area for students. Cessation training on smoking and the adverse health effects will be available and provided by the American Lung Association or other such agencies.
