Your students will learn the following- harmful effects of smoking tobacco, how the tobacco industry markets their products to entice youth, the manipulative tactics of the tobacco industry, how people become life-long smokers, history of tobacco and regulation, how media and celebrities are used to get youth to start smoking, facts about e-cigarettes, information about Reality Check initiatives, how to be philanthropists and get involved. Join other schools in Saratoga Warren and Washington counties and start a Reality Check group. Students will participate in fun events, talk to elected officials, develop public speaking skills, earn community service and more.
