Student Health Concerns - Vaping
Student Health Concerns - Vaping
Overview: The sad reality is that many young people, even in middle school, are experimenting with and even becoming addicted to vaping. While most of this involves nicotine, students in our community are also gaining access to marijuana vapes. The first thing parents need to understand is that vaping is widespread. Although recent data shows a decline in vaping, about 10.3% of middle school students in the U.S. reported using e-cigarettes or vaping nicotine in 2022, according to the CDC's National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS)
