The Western
School District attempts to provide a safe and healthy learning
environment for all of its students and patrons. To this end and
because the use of illicit drugs and the unlawful possession and use of
alcohol is wrong and harmful, the district complies with the Federal Drug
Free School Act.
In accordance with this federal law and Board of Education Policy, the
use, possession, concealment or distribution of drugs or alcohol by
students on school grounds, in school, or school approved vehicles, or at
any school related event is prohibited. Any student who violates
this policy will be subject to disciplinary action, in accordance with due
process, up to and including expulsion from school and prosecution.
Compliance to these standards by students is mandatory.
The district is concerned about any student who is a victim of alcohol or
drug abuse and will facilitate the process by which he/she receives help
through programs and services available in the community.
Non-students who violate the provisions of the Drug Free School Zone
subject themselves to severe penalties under the law. |
