Vaping Information Session Sponsored by MVMMS and MHS PTO

The MVMMS and MHS PTOs have asked us to pass along this announcement about their Vaping Info Session this evening at Melrose High School.

Learn more at  “Weeding thru the Myths of Smokin’ Mirrors”, Tuesday, Feb. 13 in the MHS Learning Commons. Stop by anytime between 6 – 8 pm. This is an open informational session for adults.

Did you know that a normal cigarette has .95 MG of nicotine in it? Did you know that a vape pod contains 5 x what is in one cigarette? Do you know what “dripping” is?

Vaping is an alarming trend among teens and even pre-teens — high school and middle school students. The Melrose Public Schools are partnering with the Melrose Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition for this interactive and informative event for parents/caregivers next week.

Please come, educate yourself, and build community awareness.

Sponsored by the Melrose Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition and MHS/MVMMS PTOs.
