SCHOOL DISTRICT TO UNVEIL DRUG PLAN
The Superior School District will present details of its proposed
random drug-testing program to the public at 6:30 p.m. Monday in the
Performing Arts Center at Superior High School.
The proposed program is modeled after one in Kimberly,
Wis.
After the 2005 senior exit survey, Superior school officials began to
study ways to deter students from using illegal drugs and to identify
those who are using drugs in order to intervene and provide
treatment. Nearly two-thirds of the students surveyed felt that the
high school has not maintained a drug-free environment.
