On February 3, a 17-year-old student at Robert D. Stethem Educational Center went to the school nurse and reported they were not feeling well. The student was going in and out of consciousness. The student indicated they consumed an edible, which contained THC, during the school day. The student was transported to a hospital for treatment. Parents are urged to talk with their children about the dangers of consuming products that may contain potentially harmful substances. Even small amounts of THC or other substances can have serious and unpredictable effects, including impaired judgment and health emergencies.
