School Board Policy
5530.01 – STUDENT TESTING FOR DRUGS AND ALCOHOL
The Board is strongly committed to drug prevention education, to the creation of a safe environment and to provide a climate where all students can reach their potential.
The use of alcohol and drugs or controlled substances, synthetic or otherwise, presents a threat to the safety, health and welfare of both our employees and our students. Because of the risks associated with such abuse, the Board has implemented a student-testing program for drugs and alcohol.
Four (4) groups of students in grades 6-12 will be tested. Each group is defined as follows:
All students that participate in extracurricular activities. Activities will include all athletic teams, music groups, academic competitions, clubs, and organizations. A full listing of activities will be provided. These students will be part of a pool of students that will be randomly selected for testing.
All students who drive to school and park on school property. These students will also be part of the random pool.
All students and staff who volunteer to be part of the random pool.
All students for whom there is a reasonable suspicion of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol must submit to a mandatory test.
