Because I grew up listening to Nancy Reagan, D.A.R.E. cops and PSA's like the one above, I was terrified of drugs by the time I arrived at PC West High School in 1993. Unlike every other kid at school, I didn't smoke marijuana, huff paint or (excluding the time my friend Isaac talked me into taking five Mini-Thins) pop pills. My drugs of choice were margarita wine coolers and Bud Ice. Yeah, I was pretty hardcore.
I bring this up because our friends at NewsOK.com ran a little story this week about a drug testing program recently implemented by Edmond Public Schools. Apparently, the district is now randomly drug testing all high school students who participate in extracurricular activities. The results from the program are kind of surprising / unbelievable.
