Millions of middle and high school students are now vaping. Are your kids/students? It's time to have the vaping talk. Free classes for adults in Magic Valley.
Vaping. E-cigarettes. Juuling. Did you know they're all the same thing? And they come in quite a few disguises these days. E-cigarette companies are now selling vape devices that are camouflaged as hoodie drawstrings, flash drives, battery chargers and pens. South Central Public Health District (SCPHD) is helping parents and teachers with new classes that focus on the latest research on vaping, the history of these devices, and the risks e-cigarettes bring our youth.
"We are trying to help educate parents and teachers about the newest devices, what chemicals are in them, and how dangerous they may be," said Cody Orchard, SCPHD Health Education Specialist. "We want to give parents the right tools to protect their kids."
A recent survey from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shows 3.6 million middle and high school students are now using e-cigarettes in the United States. This is an increase of more than 1.5 million students since last year.
The increased popularity of e-cigarettes among our youth raise concerns about early addiction, the effect of nicotine exposure on developing brains, exposure to harmful chemicals, and a potential transition over to traditional cigarettes.
Classes are free and open to anyone over the age of 18 years old:
Twin Falls High School, Roper Auditorium
1615 Filer Avenue
Monday, December 17th
7 - 8 p.m.
Buhl High School, Auditorium
#1 Indian Territory
Wednesday, December 19th
7 - 8 p.m.
For more information about tobacco cessation classes or to schedule a class, please visit phd5.idaho.gov/tobacco, to register, or contact Cody Orchard at (208) 737-5968.

BYU's Ballroom Dance Company is recognized both nationally and internationally as a treasured and unique university dance ensemble. Their new show, Swing 'n' Sway, is a spectacular show that presents ballroom dance in a theatrical environment with a contemporary point of view. Its innovative choreography is compelling, engaging and just plain fun! Audiences will be fascinated as couples dance a romantic waltz and will feel the energy as the company moves to the infectious rhythms of Latin America. Additional surprises throughout the performance makes Swing 'n' Sway a family-friendly show that should not be missed. Ballroom Dance Company is the current United States Ballroom Dance Formation Champion and is a frequent winner of the British formation Championships. Since its inception in 1970, Ballroom Dance Company has performed for millions of people in over 35 countries, including a command performance for the Queen of Thailand. The company is under the direction of Professor Curt Holman and his wife Sharon. Their distinctive style and artistic vision keeps BYU's ballroom program at the forefront of ballroom dance in America. This has led the President of the National Dance Council of America, Brian McDonald, to call the BYU Ballroom Dance Company "one of the Ballroom world's greatest treasures".

Kevin Ahfat: National Federation of Music Clubs Young Artist
January 25 at 7:30 p.m. in the CSI Fine Arts Auditorium
As a pianist that leaves no question about his riveting presentation and technical finesse, pianist Kevin Ahfat is poised to become one of the young heirs of the classical piano realm, with a bold, boundary-pushing, millennial style matched by refined execution. Possessing a balanced mix of expressiveness and virtuosity, he summons plenty of thunderpower in the big moments, but clearly values musicianship over mere showmanship. In addition to being a two-time winner of the Julliard Concerto Competition, Mr. Ahfat has won top prizes at numerous competitions worldwide, including the Schimmel International Piano Competition, Steinway & Sons Concerto Competition, and the inaugural Seattle Symphony International Piano Competition. Currently, Mr. Ahfat continues his studies at the Juilliard School.
Tickets are $10/adults, $8/seniors, or $6/students and are available at the CSI Box Office.

PRESS RELEASE - For Immediate Release
Whooping Cough outbreak in Blaine County School District
BLAINE COUNTY - South Central Public Health District (SCPHD) has confirmed several students in the Blaine County School District have been diagnosed with Pertussis (whooping cough).
"Pertussis is a very serious disease, especially for infants under the age of one," said Tanis Maxwell, SCPHD Epidemiologist. "It's important to watch for symptoms so you can get medicine right away and protect the rest of your family from the bacteria."
Symptoms usually develop within one to two weeks after contact with a person with pertussis.
Symptoms:
Early signs include a persistent cough that follows a cold. The cough usually comes in explosive bursts ending with a high-pitched whoop as the person catches their breath. It can also cause vomiting. Between bursts of coughing, the person appears well; but the coughing attacks can continue for four to six weeks. Older children or adults may have less severe symptoms. People with a cough are contagious for three weeks if untreated and for five days after treatment has begun.
How is it spread?
Pertussis is spread by contact with droplets in the air from coughing or sneezing. People in close contact with a case of pertussis (such as family members or close friends) are more likely to become ill.
What do I do if I am showing symptoms?
If you or your child develops a persistent cough, even if you have been immunized, please stay at home and consult your doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Children with symptoms of pertussis should not attend school until seen by a physician. Please call your local public health district office or your physician before taking a child in for testing. Special arrangements can be made to prevent spread to others at the time of testing.
How can I protect against Pertussis?
There is a vaccine to help protect against Pertussis. Children should receive Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis (DTaP) vaccine beginning at two months of age. By the time of school entry, most children receive five doses of DTP vaccine. A single dose of a similar vaccine called TDaP is recommended for people ages 11-64. Protection from the vaccine may decline throughout a person's life. Older children and adults may be able to develop the disease even if they have been vaccinated.
SCPHD has pertussis immunizations available for babies, adolescents, and adults. Immunizations are available by appointment at all SCPHD offices in:
Bellevue: 788-4335
Gooding: 934-4477
Jerome: 324-8838
Mini-Cassia: 678-8221

Student Mental Health Must Be Addressed
By Debbie Critchfield, vice president, Idaho State Board of Education
Conversations about student behavioral health from kindergarten through college are occurring throughout our state. K-12 administrators report that they are spending half of their time dealing with student emotional needs even though full time counselors are available in their schools. In my home district of Cassia County, the mental health needs of our students tend to be the lead topic of community discussions. Amid an increase in student difficulties caused by stress, grief, loss, addiction, peer relationships, anxiety and suicide - parents, teachers, counselors and school administrators are struggling to understand it, and to come up with plans to address it.
We regularly speak of improving student safety and yet spend only a fraction of time discussing the reasons why student safety is put at risk in the first place. Our education system does not have all the answers but it does have the ability, within its infrastructure, to assist national efforts intended to improve student wellness and mental health.
This issue is complex and must involve a variety of approaches and partners. During a recent meeting with student body presidents from Idaho's colleges and universities, the State Board of Education's executive officers, which includes myself, Dr. Linda Clark and Dr. Dave Hill, heard student leaders express the need for greater and expanded mental health resources. The Board will discuss this with the presidents of Idaho's colleges and universities during the regular December Board meeting this week at Boise State University. The discussion will include what is needed on campuses to meet this growing demand. Unidentified and unmet emotional health needs at educational institutions, can become problems for future employers and for society as a whole.
Parents, teachers and administrators all struggle with the dilemma, which can lead to dangerous situations as students act out, rather than reach out and speak out about their emotional needs.
The State Board of Education is taking a serious and deliberate approach toward improving mental health resources at our secondary and postsecondary schools and institutions. Identifying areas where clear standards for social and emotional learning can occur tops the list. Superintendent Shari Ybarra and I began discussing this about a year ago and have identified places where the State Department of Education and the State Board can take needed actions to help support schools in this effort.
A State Board working group is also meeting this week to discuss a variety of strategies. This ranges from looking at classes for future educators to in-field professional development for those already working in our classrooms. Recommendations will be presented to the Board with an associated action plan.
We work to set and achieve academic goals both in statewide and local education plans, as we should. We set education policy and aim for rigorous targets, but for a growing number of students, there are complicated emotional needs that go untended often keeping students and their families in crisis and interfering with scholastic goals.

Hello, I am a volunteer for the
AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY
, and work on the Relay for Life event that is held in Twin Falls annually. I am looking to increase the number of teams participating in our event this year. I believe a lot of people at CSI may have been touched by cancer. Perhaps a family member or a friend has received the news "you have cancer".
A Relay for Life team can be a group of 6 to 8 (or more), they focus on fundraising, and they invite cancer survivors to the annual event which will be held from 6 p.m. to midnight on May 17, 2019, at the Canyon Ridge High School. Teams will also have tents alongside the football track where we will walk in support of those fighting cancer and in honor those who have lost the fight. Team members are welcome to hand out program or organization information from these tents. Relay for Life is full of fun, music, and food, all while raising funds for the American Cancer Society. Creating a Relay for Life team is an excellent teambuilding experience and it gives you an opportunity to promote your program to the community.
I am a cancer survivor and I appreciate the free services that the American Cancer Society provided me during my treatment at MISTI. I want others with cancer to know that they have help and it's just a phone call away.
