Welcome to Week 3 of the "Bulldog Safety Zone." Recent studies show a significant increase in vaping among teenagers, raising concerns about the long-term effects of nicotine exposure on developing brains. To discourage and deter our students from vaping, detectors have been installed throughout our buildings. If necessary, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken in accordance with the Student Handbook regarding any student found to be in possession of a vape.
We know you probably don’t need a reminder, but we wanted to share this just in case!
