Felonies will affect the rest of their life, like getting accepted into college, getting scholarships, and can even affect them financially for years to come.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ktbb.com\/post\/wp-content\/media\/2020\/02\/Vaper-150x115.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"115\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-850478\" \/>It is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to possess tobacco products, electronic cigarette devices, or vaping products. Students caught with vaping products on Tyler ISD grounds will receive a Class C Misdemeanor citation and a fine of up to $100. Furthermore, if that vaping device has any other substance in it, such as THC oil, the student will be arrested with felony charges. Currently, Tyler ISD has 11 possible felony vaping violations that include testing for THC oils in the devices, depending on test results, those students\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 lives may be impacted long after graduation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; Tyler Independent School District is taking steps to educate students and parents with an anti-vaping initiative.
