The school policy is absurd and should definitely be reviewed, they should not be allowed to proceed REGARDLESS of the reason (as the school policy is worded). The district should show a little respect to the people and analyze EACH case before taking any action, I feel that any child and every person deserves this consideration.

I have an MBA degree, I don't live on welfare, I don't smoke cigarettes or Marijuana but I believe that the laws are way too hard. Personally I would allow minor to drink and smoke. I am from Europe were the law go a lot easier on these issues and I see a lot less drinking and a lot less smoking than here. Prohibition does not work, why people do not learn from history. Plus, going easier on these issues would allow more resources on more serious issues that are more important than a joint.

this is crazy, the insurance will use all the info they get to increase your rate, not to lower it. Slowly they will tell you that because you go out on the weekend your rate will increase, if you go in certain parts of town you are an higher risk profile. The insurance company already know too much, they have access to way too many infos about us. How can the reporter be so naif.
