Thank you.

I must be naive. I just never would have expected a Christian school would have to be so pro-active in the fight against drugs.

Sadly I wouldn’t have expected it as well. But as you probably know when parents try to put their children in Christian environments it works with a lot of kids but not on all. Couple that with kids that have a lot of money and, sometimes, little parental supervision and you know what can happen... The vast majority of kids will never have an issue but there will be some who do.

I will say that if my kids were in public school, no way would I want this program to be in place as I am fearful of what the government would do with the info. That’s the beauty of private school. We can do just about whatever we want :-)

Well... these 'Christian' students (boys) live in neighborhoods with kids who don't attend Rockhurst. They are easily influenced adolescent minds. It is the spread of drug use (and the society that comes with it) that 'surrounds' the school, and not necessarily an 'evil' from within the school.

Besides, it makes more sense that this elite school would be pro-active. Shutting the corral gate after the horses all run away is not a productive way to run a school.
