LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
Existing law prohibits a school from permitting the smoking or use of a tobacco product by pupils of the school while the pupils are on campus, or while attending school-sponsored activities or while under the supervision and control of school district employees.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that provision.
