An Important Message From Mr. Maguire

Recent media reports have highlighted the dangers of teens using e-cigarettes, specifically Juuls, and the growing number of teens experimenting with them. I have put together a brief report on these devices, their impact on teens, and how we plan to address this trend at Sevier. Please review the report so you can partner with us to prevent this from becoming an issue in our community. Thank you.
