BOE ERRED IN LIMITING DRUG-SNIFFING DOGS

It's unbelievable that the members of the state Board of Education 
fail to understand that public schools must be drug free by not 
allowing trained dogs to detect drugs without limitations 
(Star-Bulletin, Oct. 23).

Once entering state property all vehicles, purses, bags, lockers, 
backpacks should be subject to search. Any illegal substances found 
on any administrator, teacher, student or employee should be cause 
for immediate termination and expulsion. Maybe then, in a safe, 
drug-free environment, children may actually learn something.
