Massachusetts is set to open recreational “Pot Shops”.  Juul is being targeted by the FDA because so many teens are starting relationships with nicotine and becoming addicted.  The ground is shifting under our feet, so how do we, as parents and educators respond? What’s going on and what do we do about it?  In an attempt to respond to these questions, Connections is sponsoring an evening at LS on Tuesday December 4 at 7:30 in the LS Lecture Hall for parents to hear from and ask questions to the professionals in the field.  We will be welcoming Mary Cole, the Program Coordinator of the Greater Boston Tobacco-Free Community Partnership, along with LS counselors and Administrator and representatives from the Lincoln and Sudbury Police to talk with us about what they are seeing in our communities and how parents, the school and the community can work together to help our kids make healthy, well informed decisions.  You can register for the event here, as space is limited.
