: TERRACE. — School district 88
will: become “smoke-free” on
Sept. 1. this-year.

As of that date, a complete
smoking ban will apply in or on
the® grounds of. any building
owned by the district, including
the: REM Lee Theatre.

: ‘The prohibition will extend to
vehicles owned by the district,

? Tt also.“ means employees
working at the school board of-
fices cannot simply step out the
back door for their cigarette —
they would still be on district
property.

“The move was not, however,
without opposition. Emphasiz-
ing he was a non-smoker and an

chairman Wayne Braid said it
should be left up to individual
schools to decide on their own
policy,

. However, ‘trustee Kirsten
Chapman, proposer of the mo-

tion;..argued that simply didn’t

work. She offered the example
of a-school-in her own com-
munity of Stewart where smok-
ing was banned inside: the
building but was permitted i in an
‘outside, covered area. :

She also pointed out banning
smoking inside but providing a

special area for it outside sent a

contradictory message,
“If you leave it up to in-
dividual schools, that the sort of

-solution they find,” Chapman

maintained, adding it was’ an
unacceptable one in her view. -

“If a person wants to smoke, .
