As legal sports betting spreads across the country, companies are increasingly targeting teenagers and young adults. They market gambling as a “fun” and “harmless” way to engage with sports, but we know the reality is far more dangerous. The NCAA reports that 67% of residential college students are betting on sports. While no formal polling has been done at the high school level, anecdotal evidence suggests a significant problem. As educators, we have a critical opportunity—and responsibility—to protect our students from this growing threat. Given the increasing risks associated with sports gambling, it is crucial that schools take proactive steps to educate their students about this issue.
