This week was a powerful learning experience! 🚭
Ms. Sarah Burleson from the Decatur County Health Department came to speak with our students about the dangers of vaping as part of No Vape November. Students got to see and touch REAL pig lungs—one healthy and one damaged by smoking—and even played a game identifying what’s really inside vapes. Thank you, Ms. Burleson, for helping our students make informed choices!
