Students, staff launch 'Escape the Vape' campaign to discourage vaping
Summary
Administrators and students described an "Escape the Vape" campaign using apparel and messaging to give students a low-confrontation option to discourage vaping among peers.
District administrators Erin Holmes, Maesyn Villarreal and Aubree Austin presented a student-led initiative called "Escape the Vape" at the Nov. 10 meeting. The campaign centers on selling T-shirts and sweatshirts with messages intended to let students signal they do not condone vaping without requiring a verbal confrontation.
The presenters described the apparel as a peer-to-peer tool to help students resist vaping pressures; the board received the report as part of administrative updates. Further details on distribution, cost, and approval procedures were not specified in the minutes.
