Tobacco Diversion Classes

Seattle Public School students who violate the District Tobacco Free Environment Policy must be referred to diversion class. These ninety-minute classes will give students an opportunity to learn the facts about tobacco including health effects, possible quit methods, and media literacy. Several classes will be offered at different locations on Tuesdays every month, and all classes will be free of charge.

• After signing the student up for the diversion class, give the student the referral form. Instruct the student to have his/her parent or guardian sign the form, and then bring the completed form to the class.
• School will be notified of attendance, but absences from the class will be handled through the school.
