E-Cigarettes: What Parents Should Know
Pence Families:
The use of e-cigarettes, or "vaping" devices have become prevalent amongst both teens and pre-teens, including middle school students. We want to help you become educated about this trend and the dangers of it's use. Please take some time to review the two documents above from the CDC.
These were posted last year as well and we had some positive feedback from parents who were thankful for the information.
Sincerely-
John Childs
