Teachers and Parents: That USB Stick Might Be an E-cigarette
E-cigarettes are the most commonly used tobacco product among U.S. middle and high school students.
Some e-cigarettes don’t look like tobacco products, so some kids use them unnoticed in schools, including in classrooms and bathrooms.

JUUL delivers a high dose of nicotine. Nicotine is highly addictive and can harm adolescent brain development.
