Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Study Hypotheses:

1. adolescents in intervention schools who are given Triple A program plus ASP will show more awareness in regards to cigarettee smoking health effects and less nicotine dependencethan those in the control schools who are given Triple A alone.
2. adolescents with asthma in intervention schools who are given Triple A program plus ASP will show less asthma symptoms and better control than those in the control schools who are given Triple A alone.
3. adolescent smokers and passive smokers will exhibit higher levels of carbon monoxide (CO) in their breath than those who are not active or passive smokers.
4. there is a positive correlation between self-report questions regarding student smoking status and levels of CO in their breath
