The Michigan Association of Secondary School Principals (MASSP), in partnership with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) announced the winners of a statewide contest encouraging high school students to create public service announcements (PSAs) that discourage tobacco use through vaping at today’s Michigan Association of Broadcasters (MAB) Michigan Student Broadcast Awards Luncheon & Career Fair.

The contest challenged students across the state to develop engaging audio or video PSAs, no longer than 60 seconds, that raise awareness about the dangers of vaping among their peers. Entries were judged on creativity, effectiveness, and production value. Winners and runners up are listed below with links to their PSAs which you are welcome to use with credit given to those schools and students who produced them!
