Nationally, more than one in three high school seniors has vaped in the last year, and more than one in four have done so in the last month, according to the 2019 National Youth Tobacco Survey.And electronic cigarette use (vaping) is not limited to high schoolers.\u00a0 Some 18 percent of eighth graders had vaped in the last year, and about one in ten had done so in the last month, according to the spring survey.Parents and community members who want to learn more about this alarming epidemic are invited to attend a free\u00a0vaping\u00a0information session on Dec. 3 at 6 p.m. at Dearborn High School. <br>St. Joseph Mercy Health System will present the session\u00a0Vaping\u00a0101:<br>What\u2019s Important to Know.\u00a0 <br>The session will include information on what a vape is, how it is used, the effects of vaping, and the legal issues surrounding\u00a0vaping.Vaping\u00a0is not allowed on any Dearborn Public School property.\u00a0 Students caught\u00a0vaping\u00a0or in possession of vaping\u00a0products face serious discipline, including possible suspension, as well as a misdemeanor ticket from the school resource officer.\u00a0 In Michigan, those under the age of 18 are not<br>allowed to buy or own\u00a0vaping\u00a0products.Often parents and other adults do not realize youth are\u00a0vaping.\u00a0 Many vape devices are designed to look like<br>other items such as thumb drives or markers.\u00a0<br>Vaping\u00a0also does not produce a tell-tale smell of cigarette smoke, but<br>can deliver the same or even higher levels of addictive nicotine.###PR 18\u00a0Vaping\u00a0devices \u2013 The photo shows some of the\u00a0vaping\u00a0materials that were confiscated from students at one Dearborn Public School last year. Many of the devices are designed to look innocuous like thumb drives or phone charging banks. Community members are invited to learn more about the teen\u00a0vaping\u00a0epidemic during a free seminar on Dec. 3 at 6 p.m. at Dearborn High School.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#Students1stDbnSchs-Press Release #18-Vaping\u00a0Education Event at DHS#Students1stDbnSchs-Press Release #18-Vaping\u00a0Education Event at DHSPress Release #18\/2019-20 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Nov. 19, 2019Contact: Stacy Rumler, Dearborn High social worker(313) 827-1628\u00a0rumlers@dearbornschools.orgDavid Mustonen, Communications Director(313) 827-3006\u00a0mustond@dearbornschools.org Free\u00a0vaping\u00a0information session Dec. 3Does your teen vape?\u00a0 Do their friends?Increasingly, the answer to at least one of those questions is probably yes.
