Revised Policy 922 SMOKING ON SCHOOL PREMISES BY STAFF MEMBERS/PATRONS
Discussion:
Dr. Crowder presented the Board with revisions to Policy 922. The revisions included taking the phrase out that allows patrons and/or district employees to use tobacco products outside of athletic events and add wording that would make the district a non-tobacco campus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With the revisions, the district would be provided signs and curriculum materials educating the students on drugs, tobacco and life skills. Several surrounding schools have adopted this policy and have not had problems enforcing their non-smoking campuses. Dr. Crowder will welcome community comments on these revisions to Policy 922 and report back to the Board in December.
