What Students are Saying

 

“This program shows the school district cares about drug abuse.”

Jon Roberts, Gretna High School sophomore
Gretna, Nebraska

 

“In our family, the communication about having the drug test in the house would be my deterrent to experimenting with drugs.”

Alisha Meschkow, Desert Shadows Middle School student
Phoenix, Arizona

 

“The parents could give their kid a drug test after they come home from a party or a friend’s house. This means, hopefully, students won’t do drugs because they know their parents would find out as soon as they get home.”

Rebecca Nerheim, Desert Shadows Middle School student
Phoenix, Arizona

 

“It’s difficult for a parent to bring up drug testing, but the best way is just saying it. Then it’s out there…If I continue to talk to my parents about drug prevention I think I’ll still be clean.”

Sara Aungst, Vista Verde Middle School student
Phoenix, Arizona

 

“I never used to talk to my parents about drugs. One day they came home and told me about a presentation they saw about drug testing. We started talking about drugs that night and I learned about how bad drugs really are for me…It was awkward at first, but that didn’t last very long.”

Michael Hall, Brighton Middle School student
Cincinnati, Ohio
