As far as the tobacco free issue. Again, I don't have an issue with the policy - I think it is a good thing, but it is being taken to far for employees. Those coming from out of town to baseball games, or those parents waiting for their children in the cars at the end of the day smoke on the grounds and aren't bothered with the policy at all.... it won't effect them as far as any ''punishment'' goes. Our school will send a letter to the visiting school to remind them to tell the visiting parents to not smoke on the grounds... the parents picking up their kids would just flip off the administration and board.

I, as an employee, can lose my job - even if my spouse (who isn't employed there) smokes there or in our car and leaves tobacco there. As of this time, there are only 5 smokers on staff - and soon to be 4 when I quit. And yes, they (administration) say they can search our private vehicles if there is suspicion. Their suspicion is based on the known fact that a certain employee is a smoker. Civil right? Right to work state? This is being taken too far....

Last I looked - smoking was legal.
