New Drug In Schools....

This is a new drug known as 'strawberry quick ' 'pop rocks'.

There is a very scary thing going on in the schools right now that we all need to be aware of. There is a type of crystal meth going around that looks like strawberry pop rocks (the candy that sizzles and 'pops' in your mouth). It also smells like strawberry and it is being handed out to kids. They are calling it strawberry meth, pop rocks or strawberry quick.
 

Kids are ingesting this thinking that it is candy and being rushed off to the hospital in dire condition. It also comes in chocolate, peanut butter, cola, cherry, grape and orange.
 

Please instruct your children not to accept candy from strangers and even not to accept candy that looks like this from a friend (who may have been given it and believed it is candy) and to take any that they may have to a teacher, principal, police,etc. Immediately.

Lets see to it this does not become a problem in our schools.
