To support student health and safety, Hillsborough County Public Schools is installing vaping detectors in our high school bathrooms following a three-month pilot program at six campuses to identify the most effective devices. 

This school year, schools have recorded more than 1,000 vaping-related referrals. The new devices will detect airborne vapor and immediately alert administrators. They do not record audio or video.

Reducing vaping and protecting student health remain a top priority. Together, we can help keep our campuses safe!

Feb 2- 6, we celebrated National School Counseling Week. Counselors support teachers by maintaining the heavy weight of mental health and appropriate academic planning to set students up for success. Sometimes no matter how much a professional counsels and plans with students, students can require intense efforts to reach success. Thank you counselors for unselfishly supporting our Freedom Patriots.
