In the just-released survey, 13.8 percent of 10th-graders reported smoking marijuana in the past 30 days (considered &#8220;current use&#8221; by researchers), while just 12.3 percent smoked cigarettes. For eighth and 12th grades, cigarette use still exceeded marijuana, but the gap narrowed to insignificance. This year, current and past-year marijuana use increased for eighth- and 12th-graders and declined for 10th-graders, but none of the changes were large or statistically significant. In contrast, current cigarette smoking did drop significantly for 10th-graders. Changes for most other drugs were marginal, except for a significant increase in methamphetamine use among 10th-graders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aaron Houston, AlterNet &#8211; Buried in the latest Monitoring the Future survey &#8212; the major annual, federally funded survey of teen drug use &#8212; is an astonishing finding: More 10th-graders now smoke marijuana than smoke cigarettes. . .
