The congress said that drug testing needs to be done to protect our children, but PISD is wanting to do random drug testing because of money problems. They need to find a way to test every kid in extracurricular activities. The Detroit School District tested every child that plays extracurricular activities. We need to stand up and make sure we are doing something to protect our children. It seems like Paul Trull and the school board do not want to protect their kids.
