When Aaliyah Iglesias was caught vaping at a Texas high school, she didn’t realize how much could be taken from her.
___E-cigarettes have inundated middle and high schools.
The episode that got her in trouble happened elsewhere in Texas, at Athens High School, where her debate team was competing last February.
She was sent to her district’s alternative school for 30 days, which was the minimum punishment for students caught vaping under Tyler schools' zero-tolerance policy.
In a pilot program, the district installed vape sensors in bathrooms and cameras outside the doors.
