Good afternoon T.G Barr, parents,
Please remember to make time to join us on Wednesday April 8, 2026 @ 8:30–10:00 a.m. in the library for our English session on preventing vaping and smoking among young children. During this session, you will also learn about the different vaping devices kids are using today—many of which parents may not recognize as vaping products.
We encourage all parents across grade levels to attend, especially those with upper-grade students (5th, 6th, 7th, and particularly 8th grade). This is a valuable opportunity to learn how to help prevent these habits before students enter high school.
We hope to see you there!
Wednesday, April 8 at 8:30 a.m.
We strongly encourage parents and caregivers to attend and learn how we can work together to support and protect our students.
