I would imagine that would be a state to state issue....just a guess. I'd contact a lawyer for little free legal advice or go to the NORML site. Maybe they can help ya.
GOOD LUCK!!:thumbsup:
The school does have full authority to drug-test you IF THEY HAVE A REASON, maybe you been sleeping too much in ya classes, maybe ya been staggering or acting shady lately, maybe someone reported smelling weed on you or some shit, the school has 100% authority over you, and they can do as they please.
Hope shit goes alright for you man.
just pass the test. take a smoking break, it'll lower your resistance a lot anyways. just quit til the coast is clear so u can pass your test if need be.
^^ What he said.
***Stop smoking the shit until you have passed the test.
fuck that bullshit mann. tell em hell no. make a supreme court case out of it and set some positive precedent for us stoners. fight the machine!!!!
The school tryed to tell me that I had to take a drug before I could return from a certain offense, my dad basiclly told the administrator to shove it... and she didn't do anything about it.
you'd have to all of a sudden become really indignant and demand to know what right they had to impugn your character in such a greivous way, and the fact that it was done so publicly and without any regard to your benefit of the doubt......you could probably just get them to forget about it......side note....what sort of bullshit is that!.....if I were you I would have had serious words with that lady....that shit's not to be taken lightly.
Tell them if they don't have any solid evidence of drug use on campus (pipes, weed, stuff like that), then you won't comply with a drug test. I mean, they can't make you piss.
^ But they can suspend you..and in some schools , expell you.
Refusing to take a drug test is automatically saying you're guilty basically.

yah they can make u take a test if u wont pee they'll probably call a cop in thats what they did to my friend and then they did some tests with his eyes and found him guilty as stoned
Actually, if you're under 18 schools are notoriously "Constitution-Free Zones." There are a lot of unconstitutional things that go down in schools.Quote:

On that note, at my old high school they would instantly suspend you for not consenting to a drug test. A security gaurd once plucked a student's hair without him knowing it and had the sample tested. When they tried to expell him for drug use his father threatened to sue the school for tampering with medical records (or something along those lines). Both parties dropped their respective sides of the case IIRC.
Congress passed laws long ago allowing warrantless seaches on School Property. Schools are DRUG/WEAPONS Free Zones..not Constitutional Free.Quote:

duhrickjames had it right.
Schools are more like prisons now.
Just get clean and stay clean. Expect to have to take a drug test. Even if you don't, you just saved money from not smoking for a few weeks. Heh.
If your parents are willing to back you up, then tell the school to FUCK OFF if they ask for a drug test. But, only if your folks are gonna back you up. Or you can retain an attorney that you pay for yourself.
good luck!
thats becuase you an e-tard
no WAY they can force u to take a test. They have to bring in a cop, because he has the authority to do it. We just had a big debate today about this shit then got the facts.

It is a state to state issue. This year, my senior year thankfully, they implemented full student drug testing for everyone in sports and extra-curricular activities. Usually, if you belong to anything associated to the school name, even if its just the dang Academic Spelling Group, they can test you if they think you are doing drugs. If you don't belong to anything, no sports or activities, they have to have reasonable cause. Like someone said before, that can just be one of your teachers saying that you sleep too much in class and they want you tested, or someone saying you smell like pot etc etc. Thats reasonable cause to give you a drug test.
The only way you could probably get out of it is if your parent raised hell about it.
HAHA....you're funny.Quote:
