Drug experimentation is riskier than ever before. It is important to discuss the dangers of fentanyl so children will be prepared to make a life-saving decision in a situation that involves drugs.
Conversation talking points to share with your family:
Fentanyl has been linked to student deaths in the east Texas area. The drug market has been flooded with millions of fake prescription pills that are made of fentanyl.
Assume all pills you get online on Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook or Twitter or from a friend are not safe, and small amounts can be deadly.
There is no way to test a pill to see if it is real. Do not trust anyone who tells you that “these pills are safe.” No one knows for sure, no matter what they say.
If you didn’t get a pill from your doctor, don’t put it in your mouth. It’s not worth the risk!
All students who have been prescribed medication by their doctor must follow Winona ISD guidelines for medication administration. Keep any prescription drugs in your home secure and locked away, out of the reach of others and prevent misuse and unintentional harm from medications by removing unused medications from your home.
