MARIJUANA SMOKING IS PERVASIVE IN SCHOOL

Concerning drugs in school, many kids smoke marijuana during class as
well as recess. Marijuana is an illegal substance, and people find
some way or excuse to get their hands on it.

For recreational use or for medicinal purposes, marijuana has been in
Hawaii for a very long time. It's not only marijuana, on occasion kids
bring alcohol and even prescription drugs to school. Whether it's
bringing them to sell illegally or to use, it's been happening for a
very long time.

Although the kids may not think it is a big deal, possession of
illegal drugs will not be taken lightly if caught. So, smoke if you
want to, but if you get caught, you better hope you have nice parents
or enough money for bail.
