Vaping among students at Calhoun High in Merrick, NY, has reached alarming levels, especially in bathrooms, creating an urgent threat to their health and safety. With the rising use of nicotine and marijuana vape products, our kids face increased risks of addiction and severe health complications.

Immediate action is essential. We demand the installation of specialized smoke and vape detectors in school bathrooms, directly linked to the local fire department for swift intervention. Schools using similar detectors have reported significant reductions in vaping incidents, making this a proven, effective solution.

Our students deserve a safe, healthy learning environment free from the temptation and dangers of vaping. Protect our children’s futures by taking a stand today.

Sign this petition now and share it widely on social media. Together, we can make Calhoun High and other schools safer for every student.
