According to a report from 1011now on June 5th, public schools in Lincoln, Nebraska are currently deploying e-cigarette detection devices in all schools to address the issue of e-cigarettes comprehensively. The school district is actively responding to the increasing trend of e-cigarette use in the Southeast High School pilot program and efforts to curb the popularity of e-cigarettes in the area.
Student services director, Ryan Zabawa, stated that teachers and students have responded very positively to this detector.
As the children are no longer using e-cigarettes in the bathroom stalls, other students are able to use the facilities normally. We have noticed that more students are able to arrive to class on time, rather than lingering in the bathrooms using e-cigarette devices.
According to data from Lincoln Public Schools, while incidents of high school students smoking illegally are on the rise district-wide, the phenomenon has shown a steady decline at Southeast High School after the implementation of e-cigarette detection measures.
Zan Bawa believes that e-cigarette detectors have shown high sensitivity in detecting THC and nicotine. In just the first week of last quarter, the school reported 98 e-cigarette alarms going off in the bathrooms and changing rooms.
However, in the last week of December last year, we only received four alerts, so we saw a significant decrease in the number of alerts in the bathroom.
Currently, it appears that the trial project is going very smoothly. Therefore, Lincoln Public Schools has decided to install e-cigarette detectors in all middle school bathrooms at the conclusion of the project.
Lincoln Public Schools received $900,000 in compensation from the e-cigarette brand JUUL. As a result, the school district states that they now have sufficient funds to install and maintain more detectors.
