This report refers only to commercial tobacco use. It does not include tobacco used
by Native Americans for ceremonial and religious purposes.
Introduction
Tobacco use is one of the largest public health threats to American youth.
1
The
popularization of electronic cigarettes (“e-cigarettes”) and other next-generation
tobacco products has caused youth tobacco rates to skyrocket. In fact, the Surgeon
General declared youth e-cigarette use an epidemic in 2018.
1
In the 2019 High School Risk Behavior Health Survey, 20.8% of Michigan high school
students reported current use of electronic cigarettes.
2
Our public school districts alone reach over 2,600,000 students each year, giving
schools over 2,600,000 opportunities to prevent tobacco initiation and use in youth.
Preventing initiation is crucial: nearly 90% of adult tobacco users began using tobacco
before the age of 18. Simply delaying tobacco use until 25 years of age can significantly
reduce a person’s likelihood of becoming a habitual user.
3
Tobacco-Free School Policy
How can schools prevent youth tobacco use? The most cost-efficient and sustainable
answer is tobacco-free school policy (TFSP) when implemented as part of a
comprehensive effort.
4
The current body of scientific literature on the topic suggests
that comprehensive TFSPs result in lower student tobacco use rates. Comprehensive
TFSPs prohibit use of any and all tobacco and nicotine products, including e-cigarettes,
by everyone at all times on school grounds and at school-sponsored off-grounds
events.
Implementation
Research shows that there are three key parts to TFSP implementation:
1. Consistent enforcement. Enforcing the policy one day but not the next, or only
in certain situations, sends mixed signals to students.
2. Remedial measures rather than punitive measures. There is evidence that
tobacco education and cessation support resources are more effective in
preventing further tobacco use in students than detention or suspension.
3. Thorough training of school staff. School staff must be equipped with the skills
to identify next-generation tobacco products and to intervene when they
witness students engaging in tobacco use.
Particular care needs to be given to at-risk student populations. These include
students from low socioeconomic status families, students who reside in rural areas,
and LGBTQIA+ students.
Training and Technical Assistance
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) Tobacco Section
offers training and technical assistance to support tobacco-free school policies. This
may include training presentations; resources and support with policy adoption,
implementation, and enforcement; model policy development, and resources for
quitting.
Contact the MDHHS Tobacco Section at 517-335-8376 or MDHHS-
[email protected] to request training or technical assistance. Visit
Michigan.gov/Tobacco to learn more about tobacco prevention and cessation
resources in Michigan.
Methodology
Data Collection
The list of Michigan K-12 public school districts was downloaded from the State of
Michigan’s Educational Entity Master Repository for the 2022-2023 school year. An
MDHHS intern collected and reviewed policies from January 2023 to March 2023.
Policies were collected from school district websites and student handbooks or by
contacting school districts directly. The MDHHS Tobacco Section keeps the policies on
file with the date of when the policy was collected.
Policy Analysis and Categorization
An MDHHS intern reviewed and categorized the policies using standard
comprehensiveness criteria. Implementation and enforcement of the policies were not
reviewed. Policies were assigned a category based on the following scale:
Category 1: Prohibition of tobacco use within buildings at all times, but outdoor use is
allowed after 6 p.m. on regularly scheduled school days, during weekends, and any
other days on which there are no regularly scheduled school hours. This is the
minimum tobacco-free school policy required by Michigan law (MCL 333.12603; MCL
750.473).
Category 2: Prohibition of tobacco use that applies to everyone on school grounds but
not at off-grounds school-sponsored events. Policies that only address tobacco use on
school property or fail to explicitly prohibit tobacco at off-campus events fall under
this category.
Category 3: Prohibition of tobacco use that applies to everyone at all times, on-
campus and off-campus at school-sponsored events. Policies that meet this criterion
but that do not mention e-cigarettes and similar next-generation tobacco products fall
under this category.
Category 4: Has the same degree of prohibition as category 3, but also includes e-
cigarettes and other next-generation tobacco products. This is the most
comprehensive policy category.
Report Findings
Summary
Among Michigan’s K-12 public school districts, 87% have a category 4 TFSP as of March

K-12 Public School Districts and
Categories
594 of 597 Michigan K-12 public school districts had their policy available online or
responded to inquiry. Each policy was categorized based on their comprehensiveness.
Category 1: Prohibition of tobacco use within buildings at all times, but outdoor use is
allowed after 6 p.m. on regularly scheduled school days, during weekends, and any
other days on which there are no regularly scheduled school hours. This is the
minimum tobacco-free school policy required by Michigan law (MCL 333.12603; MCL
750.473).
Category 2: Prohibition of tobacco use that applies to everyone on school grounds but
not at off-grounds school-sponsored events.
Category 3: Prohibition of tobacco use that applies to everyone at all times, on-campus
and off-campus at school-sponsored events.
Category 4: Has the same degree of prohibition as category 3, but also includes e-
cigarettes and other next-generation tobacco products. This is the most
comprehensive policy category.

About the MDHHS Tobacco Section
Our Mission: To reduce morbidity and mortality and alleviate the social and economic
burden caused by commercial tobacco use in Michigan, particularly for those
disparately impacted.
Our Vision: A healthier Michigan, free of health inequities plus all forms of commercial
tobacco use and secondhand smoke and thirdhand smoke exposure.
Our Work: Our work is guided by the five goals of the Tobacco Section Strategic Plan.
1. Identify and eliminate tobacco-related health disparities.
2. Eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke.
3. Promote tobacco treatment (cessation) among adults and youth.
4. Prevent initiation among youth and young adults.
5. Expand and stabilize tobacco control infrastructure and funding.
