NIAA POLICY INTRODUCTIONContinued
The _______________ School District has adopted the statewide alcohol, tobacco and other drug possession, use and abuse policy in cooperation with the Nevada Juvenile Justice Programs Office and the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association. We feel this program is one of sound educational components for pre-participation and also for first and second violations. We want to insure that all student athletes remain free from alcohol, tobacco and other drugs during their high school years.

NIAA POLICY INTRODUCTION Continued
Please understand that participation in high school athletics is a privilege, not a right, and that underage drinking and use of controlled substances is against the law. It is against the law to sell tobacco to people under the age of 18 and usage is against school policy. Substance abuse negatively impacts athletic and academic performance, and research indicates that early onset of alcohol use increases the occurrence of addiction in adulthood four times. Alcohol, tobacco and other drug use interfere in learning processes and brain development and increase the chance of physical injury while participating in athletic activities. Due to these risks, and in addition to the laws of the State of Nevada, the NIAA requires athletes and parents to view the Power Point presentation and adhere to the policy that will be presented at the conclusion of the presentation.
