๐The Near North District School Board in northern Ontario has spearheaded efforts to combat vaping in schools, garnering attention across the province. Following a surge in vaping post-pandemic, the board initiated a pilot project at Almaguin Highlands Secondary School, installing vape detectors in washrooms. These wireless detectors resemble smoke alarms and alert the principal when vape is detected. The project successfully reduced vaping incidents, prompting plans to implement similar measures in six other secondary schools. The provincial budget allocated $30 million for installing vape detectors in schools, emphasizing the urgency of addressing youth vaping crisis. Principal Emily Samuel highlighted the positive impact of detectors in enhancing students' safety and well-being.โ . ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐- ๐๐ญ ๐ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ง๐ข๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ! ๐๐จ๐ฆ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ฆ ๐๐จ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐ซ +๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฆ.๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ฆ@๐๐ข๐๐.๐๐จ๐ฆ @jom_mattam . . #SchoolSafety #YouthVaping #OntarioEducation #PublicHealth #PreventiveMeasures #NearNorthDistrict #YouthWellness #VapePrevention #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
