The Dangers of Vaping
Due to the new Alternative Nicotine Products and Electronic Cigarette by Minors Ordinances that have been put in place by Rankin County, the city of Flowood, and the city of Brandon, we wanted to let you know of the new protocol.
We want our students and parents to understand the consequences of the ordinances in addition to the school consequences if caught in possession of or using a vape/e-cigarette while on any of our campuses or at events. Please take time now to read and discuss this with your child.
