HIGH TIMES AT US SCHOOLS
America's schools have become "marijuana marts" and "pill palaces,"
with millions of students seeing their peers dealing drugs and getting
high and drunk there, a shocking new survey shows.
A whopping 80% of high schoolers and 44% of middle school students
witness illegal drugs being sold at school and other kids getting
loaded there, according to a survey released yesterday.
And more than half of parents - 59% - don't think their children's
schools can become drug-free, the Columbia University-based National
Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse found.
