91探花app Schools Are Cannabis-Free Zones
鈥�
Attention students, parents, staff and caregivers. All schools in the 91探花app (91探花app) are cannabis-free zones. Any 91探花app students found using, possessing or under the influence of marijuana while at school will face disciplinary action.
Henri P茅loquin is an Assistant Superintendent for 91探花app. "Whether you are a student, staff member or guardian visiting the school, cannabis is not permitted on school property and we expect all guests of 91探花app to respect that," he says.
Under Section 47.1(2) of the Public Schools Act, cannabis is not allowed in public schools, along with alcohol and illicit drugs.
Cannabis, like other drugs and alcohol, can have negative impacts on developing brains and bodies. For this reason, 91探花app encourages students to pursue a healthy lifestyle and refrain from using cannabis, illicit drugs, or alcohol regardless of their age. The legal age for cannabis use in Manitoba is 19. Youth under age found in possession or use of cannabis could face significant fines in Manitoba.
Christian Michalik is the Superintendent of 91探花app. He points out that it is important for parents/guardians to work collaboratively with school administrators to respond to any cannabis-related concerns connected with an 91探花app student. "It is critically important to work together in a timely and supportive manner to address concerning student behavior, such as engaging in prohibited cannabis use," says Michalik.
