Since the powers that be have decided it is fit and proper to perform random drug tests on high school students, will this carry over to include the administrators, teachers and staff? After all, aren't these educators role models for our children? Why not include the school boards? And while you're at it, how about the parents of the students? There are no more important people in the life of an impressionable child than his or her parents. We're headed down a slippery slope. The first step was the athletes. The second step is now to include other students. We can only speculate what the third step may be. David Pavlich Mandeville - --- MAP posted-by: Ariel
