OREGON: COURT UPHOLDS DRUG TESTS
Requiring drug tests of students who want to participate in extracurricular
sports does not violate search and seizure protections in the state
constitution, the state Court of Appeals ruled. The decision upheld the
Oakridge School District, which excluded a student from playing volleyball
after her parents would not consent to have her tested for drug and alcohol
use.
