E-Cigarette Concerns

E-cigarette use among youth has become epidemic and is a concern for school staff and parents.  The most popular of the e-cigarettes is the Juul which looks like a USB flash drive.  One pod in a Juul device contains as much nicotine as an entire pack of cigarettes.  It is important to note that electronic cigarettes are not healthy.  This might seem obvious to most, but there is a misconception that "vaping" is not harmful.  Helpful information is provided below. 

School board policy prohibits the use or possession of any tobacco product or nicotine delivery device (like an e-cigarette).  Parents should contact the school office with any questions or concerns.
