Vaping on the rise in El Reno schools

Body

It was a common sight in virtually every high school across America. A teenager would hide behind a door during recess, go into a bathroom or walk a short distance from the school on lunch break to light up a cigarette.

Now, it’s the same story but in a different form — an electronic one.

At various El Reno schools, kids have been caught vaping on numerous occasions. Every so often, the devices even contain THC, the psychoactive compound of marijuana.
