Eric Lowe, the head of Beaver Local Schools in Lisbon, stated that school administrators in the county are searching for ways to decrease the appeal of e-cigarettes, which appear to be affecting young people. E-cigarettes allow users to inhale nicotine-infused liquid into their lungs. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about two-thirds of 15-24 year olds who use the most popular e-cigarette, JUUL, are unaware that it always contains nicotine. Additionally, the CDC says that one JUUL pod contains the same amount of nicotine as a pack of 20 regular cigarettes.
Lowe stated that he and other school officials in the county received valuable information about the dangers of underage e-cigarette use from the county's drug task force during a recent training session in the area. The drug task force led a training focused on drug and school safety.
I am pleased to hear that the drug special task force has provided more information regarding how many products related to electronic cigarettes are targeting young people," Lowe said. He went on to say that all counties are working hard to improve education surrounding electronic cigarettes and "the danger associated with this seemingly yearly behavior among young people.
Furthermore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that parents should be aware that while JUUL is currently the best-selling brand in the US, other companies are selling e-cigarettes that look like USB flash drives and can be used to transport marijuana and other drugs. Lowe gave a brief overview of the training during Monday's board meeting with the Beaver Local Education Committee.
We are pleased to host this training," he said. "As we work to ensure that our school community can reach its full potential, the school will continue to explore ways to proactively support the social and emotional needs of both staff and students." He added that the district is grateful for its relationships with the St. Clair Township Police Department and other county agencies, who will provide support in any emergency situation.
