School District Installs E-Cigarette Sensors with Government Grant
The Trock Unified School District received $189,275 for e-cigarette sensors, implementing strict tobacco control measures.

The Trock Unified School District has received $189,275 from the Department of Justice Tobacco Grant Program to purchase and install electronic cigarette sensors on middle school campuses. Additionally, the district has implemented new accountability measures to prevent students from using and possessing tobacco.


According to Barney Gordon, the Assistant Director of Business Services, school districts have been considering the installation of electronic cigarette sensors for years due to the increase in on-campus cases.


Gordon explained, "Over the past year, the area has been testing electronic cigarette sensors in some bathrooms, which have proven to be effective tools in addressing this issue." "However, as each sensor requires data loss, this significantly increases costs. As a result, we have identified potential funding and applied for it immediately upon the opening of the funding window.
