What is Juul?

In high schools all around the country, teens have made vaping a trend and now the next vaping device is here, Juuls. The JUUL is a small, USB shaped, vaporizer that can fit in the palm of your hand and is very concealable.

They come in a wide range of flavors that some say are kid friendly, including mango, cucumber, creme brulee, mint, fruit medley, and tobacco. You can also purchase “skins” for the Juul as well to make it more your own.

“They’re easily hidden from teachers and most of them don’t even know they exist, and if they ask I just tell them it’s a USB drive,” a senior from Rex Putnam High School said. “I can even use it in class if I want to,” they also said.

With their popularity rising, most kids own one or at least have used one at one time or another, according to an informal survey at the high school. One single Juul pod contains as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes and some teens go through multiple pods in a day.  North Clackamas students are subject to discipline if found with the device.
