The official agreed that the problem was real and that it was out of control; the potheads hide out in the nearby woods and puff away whenever they like. I suggest that Gov. Lingle send the state police to the school with dope-sniffing dogs to end this unlawful activity. Apparently, our police dogs are too busy. Am I the only one who thinks the state owes our children a duty to keep public schools free of drugs? Our children are required by law to attend school, right? So, in essence, the state requires our children, under penalty of law, to be exposed to drugs on a daily basis. Hey, politicians! Schools should be no-drug zones.
