Below is an important public health message about the dangers of opioid use impacting our community.  Â鶹ÊÓƵ County has experienced  in 2021, impacting children as young as 15 and older. The California Department of Public Health recently released an  (an extremely potent and dangerous synthetic opioid), which is found in pills, powders and blocks in a variety of bright colors, shapes and sizes resembling sidewalk chalk or candy. Fentanyl continues to be a major contributor to drug overdoses in California, including among youth.  

SCUSD is added another life-saving rescue medication to all our school sites by providing Narcan nasal spray for use during a suspected opioid overdose.  SCUSD Health Services has obtained free Narcan to distribute to our school sites through the California Department of Health Care Services Naloxone Distribution Project. 

We urge all our SCUSD community members to learn about the signs of opioid overdose and speak to our children, family members, friends and colleagues about the dangers of opioid use.  

See the  flyer for more information and important tips for talking about fentanyl awareness and use: 

  • Encourage open and honest communication 
  • Explain what fentanyl is and why it is so dangerous 
  • Stress not to take any pills that were not prescribed to you from a doctor 
  • No pill purchased on social media is safe 
  • Make sure they know fentanyl has been found in most illegal drugs 
  • Create an “exit plan†to help your child know what to do if they’re pressured to take a pill or use drugs
