The Westmorland Union Elementary School District is committed to maintaining a safe and healthy school environment. As part of this effort, we are piloting vape sensors in some of our school bathrooms. These sensors detect airborne particles associated with vaping (e.g., nicotine or THC vapor) and alert staff to ensure prompt action. The sensors do not record audio, video, or personal data.
Please note that vaping on school grounds may result in disciplinary action. We encourage you to discuss the dangers of vaping with your child, including health risks like lung damage and addiction.
For questions or concerns, please contact Rauna Fox or Ariel Cecena. Thank you for supporting a safe learning environment.
