Come join us for a day of learning and networking!
The purpose of this year’s summit is to highlight and discuss substance abuse and safety issues impacting our schools and how we can address them as a community.
A recent report by the National Institute of Drug Abuse indicated that nicotine vaping has increased annually and more than doubled from 2017 to 2019 with students in grades 8-12. Nicotine can affect the development of brain circuits that control attention and learning. This can contribute to other risk factors such as mood disorders and impulse control. A session exploration activity will feature an opportunity drawing for participants. Our police chief panel is back by popular demand!
