| The American Lung Association of Oregon (ALAO), Oregon Tobacco Prevention & Education Program, and the Oregon School Board Association (OSBA) have worked together to develop model tobacco-free policies for Oregon School Districts.
OSBA has two sample policy versions:
OSBA Sample Policy Version 2 is a “gold standard policy” that contains policy elements that together make up a comprehensive tobacco prevention and education approach for schools. The American Lung Association of Oregon and the Oregon Tobacco Prevention and Education Program recommend that all school districts adopt this gold standard policy version.
Districts adopting this policy version will be awarded an “A+”!
OSBA Sample Policy Version 1 (also known as “basic policy”) contains the policy elements that meet the minimum standards mandated by the Oregon Administrative Rules. Districts adopting this policy version will earn at least a “C” grade.
