School decides to harass students and funnel money to contractor

A school district is fed up with ‘epidemic’ vaping. Now it will randomly test students for nicotine.

A "wishes to remain anonymous" source I trust (who is distinctly not pro-vaping) suggests that not only is the amount of detectable nicotine in the blood from vaping indistinguishable from second-hand smoke exposure (contrary to the claims made by the testing company in that article), there are also other factors impacting how different people metabolize nicotine that make this likely that this is just gonna be used for harassment.
