At Apollo Career Center, there are a lot of people who bring stuff like chew, dip, and vape pens into class. Even though they know that they are not supposed to do it, they still do and get suspended for it. They are wasting their time and money by coming to school and then getting suspended. They are also wasting the teachers’ time by pulling them away from teaching so that they can deal with the chewers, dippers, and vapers.
