Great links and information to help create a vape-free Indiana

Please note: "Our School Resource Officers (SROs) have found these devices in every setting except for the Early Learning Center." To combat these issues, students with these devices will be charged through the Hobart City Court with a Class C Infraction (Indiana Statute 35-46-1-10.5). This will require a MANDATORY appearance and may carry a fine of up to $500, plus court costs of $114."

Additional words from our School City of Hobart School Resource Officers:

Parents and Guardians,
We thank you for your partnership in keeping our students safe. Many of these products are odorless. We encourage you to check through your students belongings/backpacks and talk with the students about these issues.  Tell them what the late and great Larry Juzwicki always told me, “There is no safety in silence!”
