A reminder that vaping and juuling are strictly prohibited on campus and at all school-sponsored events. One teaspoon of juul juice can be fatal to a small child, and we have very young children on our K-12 campus. What you may think of as harmless fun is extremely dangerous. Putting other students at risk — especially our youngest PKY family members — will not be tolerated. Engaging in juuling, or being in possession of the paraphernalia, could result in serious punishment, up to expulsion from P. K. Yonge.
