Parents and Guardians:
In an effort to continue our connection and partnership in supporting ALL Hawks, I will be hosting a parent informational meeting on Wednesday, February 15th from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.
The focus of this meeting will be on current trends in substance abuse and prevention. I have invited members of Omni Youth Services to present information you may find helpful in being an informed parent and/or for navigating conversations with your student on these topics. Specific observed trends to be covered include e-cigarettes or vaping, stimulants and counterfeit pills…to name a few.
*E-cigarettes or vaping devices are battery-operated devices that people use to inhale an aerosol, which typically contains nicotine (though not always), flavorings, and other chemicals.
**Stimulants are a class of drugs that speed up messages traveling between the brain and body.
***Counterfeit pills are fake medications that have different ingredients than the actual medication. They may contain no active ingredient, the wrong active ingredient, or have the right ingredient but in an incorrect quantity.
It is my sincere hope that you will be able to join us for this important informational meeting.
Please enter through door 1 and follow the posted signs to our Media Center.
Sincerely,
Mike Alther
Principal
