Nope. It would just be confiscated and parents would probably have to come in to pick it up. You don’t even get suspended for being caught smoking! Unless you keep doing it. You just get an internal exclusion for a day or so. Unless of course it’s not a normal cigarette.

Im willing to bet that they didn't smell his vape. I used to have one (now I just use a Juul), and even when loaded with juice they don't have a significant odor (only when you are filling it or using it does it give off an odor). It sounds like to me that because he was showing it off to everyone, teachers became privy to the situation (or someone overheard and was a narc), let the administration know, and they came into class to shake him down.
Definitely shouldn't have been showing it off. Whenever I would bring anything 'illicit' into school, I would be as discreet as possible about it. So did anybody else I knew. Im pretty damn sure that if I let anybody know I had a pack of cigs or a pipe and weed in my bag that id get ratted out. I wouldnt even tell my friends, unless they were the ones in which I was going to partake with.

I understand why smoking might be a problem because to non smokers the smell is annoying. But with vaping, regardless of whether you think it looks stupid, who does it harm? The bathrooms used to smell like shit and piss. Now they smell like pumpkin spice/tobacco/mango/kiwi
Vaping itself can cause some problems but its a personal choice and you cant live life trying to be perfectly healthy
I vape and have friends who vape. We all now that unvaporized juice doesn't produce a smell that would carry throughout an entire room. Also, lets say they did smell it. The room would have a slight strawberry kiwi smell to it, as if someone had just opened a gatorade or something. Unless someone had just been vaping in the room it wouldnt even smell like vape.
When they called us back, they said it might have been a "strange body odor" which made me think someone had some low quality weed on them or something. Vape juices smell like whatever flavoring agents are in them, no way the two are in any way related.
The smell I noticed when I walked in at the beginning of the class was the smell of the salad the coach was eating. It had some kind of strong smelling dressing, kind of a savory smell. It probably would have covered up any other smells and it wasnt suspicious either, it smelled like a fucking food. If the salad was the reason we were searched thats so pathetic its hilarious. My friend and I got suspended because of a fucking salad. I think I'm going to tell that to the trade school I'm going to when they see a suspension on my record

Forgot to add they’ve really tightened up the rules at your school since you would have been there. Very strict on uniform. Every student has something called a standards card - any problems with uniform (shirt untucked, tie off, jewellery, any type of make-up or nail varnish, etc) gets you one signature. 5 signatures and it’s a lunch time detention. Lose your standards card? Instant lunch time detention. Man, I used to love handing out those signatures! Especially if I was the fifth signature as I knew that meant they were losing their lunch! I was genuinely disappointed when I got a student’s card and I was the fourth signature - so annoying!

I go to a private school and you cant wear hoodies unless they are college ones and you cant wear t shirts of any kind. I get away with both somehow. A lot us do what I'm doing in my profile pic. If you wear a flannel over a hoodie they dont notice, and it looks really cool

You do know the school is rated "outstanding" by Ofsted? Definitely not a shithole haha. I've seen far worse.

They make my school seem all fancy and shit whenever they have a parent event but really its just like a public school except it costs 16k a year and it isn't subject to regulations that protect students from discrimination and unreasonable searches. People smoke weed in the locker room, people bring keep guns in their cars at school, fights happen, and so on. I really dont have a problem with these things and I am a part of some of them, but private schools are a huge ripoff. My gpa is a 1.4 and I have a suspension on my record and possibly an ISS that I never attended. Ive been on academic probation for all of high school. I dont understand why my parents are still wasting money on this. Im trying to convince them to stop.
Im 18 so for my senior year next year I might just go to public school or better yet get my GED and go straight to trade school.

i've heard from people who work there that they massively bullshitted their way through that and it wouldn't get that rating at any other time. i don't really know how the process works though.
it was an alright school anyways, i'm just messing.

Is there an age limit for vaping like there is for cigarettes? Having a bunch of teens at a private school engaging in illegal activities sounds like trouble.
Sounds like someone tipped them off then, if vaping just smells like fruity flavouring. I have no idea, never done it.

Yeah vapes are regulated in the same way as cigarettes. In the US there is no age limit on smoking/vaping itself, but it is illegal to sell any tobacco products including vapes with or without nicotine to minors. I am 18, and thus of legal age to buy a vape, but the other kid was 15.
Either someone snitched or someone overheard people talking about it. They shouldnt have gone in there and made up a reason to search us.

Maybe you should be grateful and appreciative of the opportunity you’ve got of going to a private school and stick to the rules. Instead of whining about it constantly. I bet it costs your parents’ a fortune to send you there.
You don’t get the same kind of support and teacher:student ratio, nor the extra curricular opportunities in most state schools! I teach classes of up to 32 students. I bet you have between 10 and 20. Schools need strict rules to function, or else students think they can do whatever they like and ruin the learning experience for others.
I went to a really shitty school, full of bruteish, brainless imbeciles. But I put some work in and did well regardless. I’d have killed to go to a private school. I would have been provided with a much better learning environment than I had.

Depends on the state, you can definitely get a ticket for smoking and having possession of tobacco/tobacco products if you're underage in some states.
