RATIONALE
The Board of Education has a duty to protect and promote the health and well-being of all students and staff. The board is acutely
aware of the serious health risks associated with the use of tobacco products; both to the users and non-users, and that most
tobacco use begins by the age of 18. The board recognizes district personnel and school visitors serve as role models to students
and, therefore, adopts this 100% tobacco-free school policy to endorse a healthy lifestyle and prevent tobacco use.
