Studies show that marijuana interferes with attention, motivation, memory, and learning.

Those who use it regularly may be functioning at a reduced intellectual level most or all of the time.   Check out NIDA's new infographic that explains what that means in the classroom, and how that can affect your life.     [Click here to view larger version of this infographic or the text-only version]
