An Alabama high school removes doors from some of its bathroom stalls in an effort to prevent students from vaping.

An Alabama high school has removed some of the doors from its bathroom stalls in an effort to prevent students from vaping in campus bathrooms.this month the decision to remove some of the stall doors in the boys' bathroom was prompted by an incident two weeks ago in which a student, vaping in the bathroom, passed out. The high school is in Florence, in the northwest corner of the state.

The best way to prevent students from taking smoke breaks was to remove some of the stall doors, according to Horton.Janelle Griffith

It's laughable that the US is doing more for kids to stop vaping then the shootouts.

Put up a cheap shower curtain from the dollar store... I have no idea

More likely to prevent them from taking a dump...🤷‍♂️

Ok, so, obviously the kid who passed out was vaping more than nicotine! Or maybe it was the new trend..autoerotic-defecation! In all seriousness, removing doors will educate kids about substance abuse, right?! What a joke.

Alabama, Alabama.. Your doing the most SitDown

uuuuuhhhhhhhh............. how about just care 10% more and check the bathrooms. fucking lazyass teachers these days.

Public restrooms are already awful and unusable, this just makes them a joke.

I swear Alabama really lives up to all of the stereotypes! 😒

Alabama! Of course! 🙄

Taking the doors off to stop vaping but for decades when kids were smoking in the bathroom, (and there’s even an 80’s song about it), that was cool. And these people are educators?

Vaping in the boys room. Haven't we been down this road before?

Shit yeah! They like to make there own beef jerky, go on river boat gambling trips and shitting with the door open.

Seriously?

Sweet home Talibama!

markb_wsfa That’s a horrible idea

Despicable

Maybe the doors flew off during the hurricane.

What could go wrong?

Was this so that the teachers were sure that the steam coming up, above the doors was from a vaping device? Or that the could see the students with their pants down?

Just wait. Hurricane Dorian will remove the doors for you. It will be there any day now. Just ask realDonaldTrump .

No privacy

It didn’t stop the kids smoking in the bathrooms in the 1980’s.....

Remember kids. wipe!

Well their goes privacy for the special needs who need privicy in the bathroom

Roy Moore sponsored this bill

Fucken idiots

The teachers have to use the public bathrooms too. Remove the teachers lounge. No private bathrooms for all.

Why not just lock the students and faculty out of all the bathrooms to begin with? Just put a squatty potty in the front row of every classroom so everyone can keep an eye on you to make sure you aren't vaping while you do your business?

Last I heard, school isn't supposed to be prison. Meaning, some things should continue to be private, using the bathroom is right at the top of the list! Hiw about just patrol them more often?

No homo

that is an awkward shit

This is the behavior of pedophiles.

They should worry more about their lack of education...

They removed the doors to the boys bathroom at the first high school I taught at in the 1970s. Nothing new. It didn't do then from smoking just made it easier for the staff to catch them

As if the kids aren't vaping in the halls and classrooms...

Teacher bathroom monitors or security would actually do more than this lol

Not the best idea... WOW

WTF!!! Searching students for vaping artefacts is an invasion of their privacy and having bathrooms with no doors is a better option!!!! Search the darn kids and confiscate any and all tobacco products!!!

Bad move!

Sure. Vaping. Uh-huh. Ok Lester.

What do expect? It's Alabama, where 'stupidity ' is a constant.

My high school didn't have a door to the bathroom. We still smoked there.

Was that Roy Moore’s idea

stinkytcat1 So much for the dignity of the kids who have to take a legit dump.

Lol that’s like going to the dr and telling him you have a sore shoulder and he tells you to take your pants off, I want to take a look👀...same thing. Look for these💭💭💭💭💭💭they should fill the entire bathroom

Guess the family value preaching didn’t work. Feel really bad for these kids.

My high school didn't have bathroom doors either... People still smoked. But where to poop? I chose to do my business in the library bathroom. It's clean, quiet, & there's plenty of great reading. NatureFindsAWay ThesePeopleAreStupid

Right...finding other ways to vape will be the response...ridiculous.

So students give up their privacy? Not ok

So sorry for the course of events USA society is taken down the road. Really I’m so sorry about it 🙁

Just tell them to say no. It's hard to quit but I did it

They have bathrooms?! I figured they were an all-outhouse state. I kid. In my TN high school, many of the stalls didn't have doors. Cigarettes or deferred maintenance, who could tell?

Of course its Alabama. 🙄

I’m poop shy, I’d have issues

LOL, cuz the huge gas cloud didn't tip anyone off

I'm sure having no stall door will make it even more conducive to using bathroom as intended....(SARC).

Really hard to just look above them for smoke...

What could go wrong

DUMBEST THING IVE HEARD ALL YEAR!!

How about guns?!!!

My high school had a bathroom that was like a new bathroom. If you were to take the entire bathroom it was a room from the bathroom and anyone who didn't are an asshole.
