On Tuesday, April 4th, the JSHS hosted speaker Robb Holladay. Mr. Holladay is a dynamic mental health speaker for junior high and high school students that travels the USA to share his important messages in a way that is entertaining and informative. He spoke to our high school students about the hazards of vaping, as well as the marketing techniques employed by the tobacco companies to gain teens as customers for life. He shared personal experiences as well as a close look at the risks associated with vaping devices. For our junior high students, Mr. Holladay spoke about the various social media “land mines” that students face today, including technology addiction; bullying and hateful posting, oversharing information, and the future ramifications of a social media digital footprint on college and career. The mantra was “Say it…forget it. Post it…regret it.” We hope that all our students enjoyed having Mr. Holladay and that his important messages met their intended audience.
