Refer to policy. 

Always provide for due process. 

For consistency, administrators agree that the following discipline be imposed:  

  1. First offense: Minimum suspension of two (2) days   
  2. Second offense: Minimum suspension of four (4) days  
  3. Third offense: Long term suspension recommended of five (5) or more days. 

Offenses do not carry over to the next school year. 

If school administrators have reasonable, educationally sound alternative programs for tobacco cessation, they may utilize them.
