Lewisville Independent School District started random drug testing on monday april 13th 2008. 75 students are to be tested every day at every high school in the LISD school district. Personally I have nothing against being tested seeing as I don't do drugs. Something that bothers me though is that my friend (who we will say is bob) got tested yesterday. No big deal right he doesn't do drugs. Well it is somewhat of a deal because he missed half of 2nd period and half of 1st period. He had to sit in a bathroom stall for one hour and drink cups of water repeatedly until he had to pee. They colored the toilet water blue so you couldn't use that. Now the question comes in at, where have they crossed the line? How does this affect students to be tested in the future? I have not been tested but when I do I will be back here posting what happened. I do think that spending so much money on a program designed to "improve grades" ends up dropping grades with so many kids having to retake tests and missing assignments due to the drug test.
Like I said, I haven't been tested and I am not strongly against it but I do not support it either.
