Minnesota Teacher Charged with Sharing Marijuana Vape with Students During Utah Field Trip
A Minnesota teacher has been charged with three counts of drug distribution for allegedly providing a marijuana vape to underage students during a field trip in Utah.

[2Firsts]According to a report by KSL.com, a Minnesota teacher has been charged with three counts of drug distribution after allegedly providing a marijuana vape pen to students during a school-sanctioned field trip in southern Utah.

 

Paul Thomas Senechalle, 29, of Goodhue, Minnesota, is accused of distributing the vape pen and allowing multiple underage students to smoke marijuana with him on June 23, while serving as an adult chaperone. The charges, filed in Kane County’s 6th District Court, classify the offense as a second-degree felony.

 

Senechalle is currently listed as a science teacher at Cannon Falls Public Schools. The age of the students involved was not specified in the court documents.

 

KSL.com also cited an earlier article from the Cannon Falls Beacon, which noted that Senechalle had led a June 2024 field trip involving sophomore students. It is unclear whether this trip is connected to the incident referenced in the charges.
