Drug use, particularly vaping or smoking marijuana, is a prevalent issue among high schoolers. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) states that 23.2 percent of 12th graders had vaped nicotine in the past year, and 29 percent of 12th graders had reported using cannabis in the past year, according to the 2023 NIDA Monitoring the Future annual survey. While drug use among teens is not rising dramatically, the dangers of doing so have. With deadly synthetic drugs like fentanyl contaminating drug supplies, drug use in teens has been more dangerous than ever before.

Lacking in basic necessities, the Foothill Tech bathrooms are home to those avoiding classes and wanting to pull out their vape. The sickly smell of vapes is accented by graffiti on the stall walls that provides a great addition to the ambiance of the restrooms.

Wow, overwhelming support for Chrome. Definitely not expected!

I just wish Google would finish the OSX and Linux builds of Chrome soon, Firefox is becoming bloated and I love what I’ve seen of Chrome so far.

What kind of problems Joe? I’m not sure that uninstalling Chrome caused it, but who knows with technology these days!

What do you think?
