On April 22, a student at Thomas Stone High School, age 16, became ill after using a vape device containing THC that was obtained from another student. The student went to the nurse and was subsequently transported to the hospital via ambulance. The student who reportedly gave the student the vape was identified and a vape containing THC was recovered. That student was issued a civil citation for possession of cannabis.
This incident follows several prior cases of middle and high school students in possession of THC vapes and cannabis. On April 21, a bag of cannabis was recovered from a student, age 13, at Mattawoman Middle School. A vape containing THC was recovered from a student, age 14, at Mattawoman Middle School on April 20. On April 16, a vape containing THC was recovered from a student, age 13, at Piccowaxen Middle School and a student, age 17, at St. Charles High School was found in possession of cannabis. On April 15, a vape containing THC was found on a student, age 14, at Davis Middle School.
The students were issued civil citations in accordance with the law and the Charles County Public Schools issue consequences in accordance with the student code of conduct. Parents are urged to talk with their children about the dangers of using vapes with THC which contain potentially harmful and mind-altering components.
