Lewisville students are fighting new policy in their ISD that requires students to consent to the indignity of random drug tests if they want to participate in such seedy activities as debate team and glee club, much less playing football or any of the lesser sports.
Maybe it will help their case to know that a study by the University of Michigan shows that broad-based random drug testing doesn’t have any effect on underage drug use, making random drug test programs both expensive and wasteful. But I suppose it does serve the purpose of teaching students to meekly submit and that they are guilty until proven innocent. Which is something. By the way, kids, here’s a good resource.
The only thing Lewisville ISD is doing is pissing tax payer’s money down the drain.
HA!
The teachers should have to submit to random tests too. I bet a few show up with alcohol or THC in their system. C’mon Lewisville, let’s see how far you can take this thing.
This story fails the test. It’s just yellow journalism.
Go Zero Tolerance! It beats thinking!
