According to Ksat's report on August 10, Texas (hereinafter referred to as "Texas") has passed House of Representatives Bill No. 114, which aims to combat the problem of e-cigarettes in public schools. The bill, which came into effect on September 1, will introduce stricter disciplinary measures against students using e-cigarettes on campus.

Northside ISD Police Chief Charlie Carnes said:

"E-cigarettes, nicotine substances and THC are growing at an alarming rate."

Kearns noted that vaping incidents on NISD campuses have increased dramatically over the past two years, from about 40 incidents per month to more than 200 per month.

At the end of last term, there were 300 cases in school districts in the region in May alone. Case data from the two other largest local school districts has also been requested.

The North East ISD had 666 THC and 633 nicotine-related cases last school year, for a total of 1,299.

The bill requires students to be removed from the classroom and placed in the Disciplinary Alternative Education Program (DAEP) if they meet certain conditions, including engaging in certain behaviors within 300 feet of the school campus.

The Act covers any school-sponsored or school-related activity on or off campus, including pupils who are caught trafficking or influencing these substances.
