20% of high school seniors and sophomores vaped marijuana last year 



new report that looked at trends in teen substance use among eighth, 10th, and 12th graders in the U.S. finds that about 1 in 5 high school seniors and sophomores say they have vaped marijuana in the past year. More than 60% of high school seniors said they vaped just to see what it was like, with around 40% saying they liked the flavors.

Another report that looked at survey data from middle- and high-schoolers between 2017-2018 finds that students using marijuana in e-cigarettes went from about 1 in 10 children in 2017 to more than 1 in 7 children last year. Those who had already been using at least one tobacco product and those who lived with someone who also used e-cigarettes were most likely to report vaping marijuana last year.
