Schools enforce the policy and consistently administer penalties for violations.
Disciplinary measures for non-compliance with policy are educational as well as punitive. Policy development includes active collaboration with teachers, students, and parent groups to give direction and build support for tobacco-free schools. All components of a school's smoking policy, including consequences for violations, are communicated in written and oral form to students, staff, and visitors. District-wide educational programs addressing the prevention of tobacco use are initiated or expanded as part of the policy implementation process. Smoking cessation programs or other incentives are developed for students, school personnel, and, if possible, the public.
