3 school districts to install vape detectors in restrooms, funded by Juul lawsuit settlement.

The Wenatchee School District in Washington, Mesa Public Schools in Arizona, and Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland plan to install vape and smoke detectors in school restrooms, funded by a recent Juul lawsuit settlement. The advanced Halo sensors in Wenatchee monitor sound levels and vibrations, while Mesa and Montgomery County detectors identify vape pen chemicals and alert staff. These measures aim to tackle the issue of vaping on campus, with disciplinary actions ranging from educational programs to suspension or legal charges if THC is involved.
