DRUG TEST TEACHERS RANDOMLY

Mr. Jeff Knope, here's a rude awakening for you ("Love, not pay, draws
teachers," Letters, Dec. 31).

Even the unruly and disruptive deserve to be educated. But you seem to
want teachers to have the power to kick them out of the classroom.
Where is the love you mention with this kind of thinking?

Also truckers get paid more than teachers because they drive big rigs
in dangerous conditions and long hours.

Furthermore, Mr. Knope, quit putting words into my opinions. Their is
no way in my letter I mention that the children are exempt from drug
testing. (We all know that some of the children are on drugs, too.)

What I'm simply saying is, "Why are teachers so afraid to be drug
tested?" Let them be role models to our students by being a
professional and step up to the plate and drug test. After all, the
teachers agreed to drug tests in their contracts.

If teachers can not afford the drug test, have their teachers union
pay for it from their union funds and to ease the pain, drug test randomly.
