South Tahoe High’s Principal Chad Houck made a phone call to parents last week, warning them of the increased use (and subsequent detection) among teens of what is known as “vaping.”
Vaping is to “inhale and exhale the vapor produced by an electronic cigarette or similar device.” The devices are vaporizers, and what goes inside them became popular as a way to cut back on smoking cigarettes starting in 2007, but a 2014 Science News study showed that vaping did not boost quit rates.
