School Board Vote


At our last GYC district meeting, the GYC was able to see the Cache County School Board vote on the changes GYC proposed for the district's drug policy.  GYC wanted the school board to add e-cigarettes to the policy to help protect students from them. The school board added e-cigarettes and language that bans all nicotine products to help cover any new nicotine delivery devices that may come out in future years. Landon, a GYC leadership member, presented the policy to the school board and asked for a vote, while the rest of GYC was in the audience watching the vote. The school board voted to adopt the changes and added e-cigarettes and nicotine devices to their policy.


GYC also presented a few months back at the Box Elder School Board and they also just voted in March to add e-cigarettes to their school policies. Great work GYC! We would like to thank the Cache School Board for allowing us to use their building for our meeting and for all the help in getting the policy passed. And again we would like to thank the other school boards for allowing us to present to them and for taking the time to look at updating their policies.
