Random drug testing on teens

Drugs are a big part of our society, drugs are used every day by all types of people of different ages. A lot of people get peer pressured into doing drugs because either everyone is doing it or their friends are doing it. Student athletes are more likely to drink rather than to do drugs.

According to the website studentdrugtesting.org in May 2008, 16.5% of U.S. school districts have adopted student random drug testing programs. This represents about 2,000 U. S. school districts. Do you think it’s fair to do random drug testing on students?

In my opinion, I believe that schools should get random drug testing not only on student athletes but on all the whole entire campus… teachers as well. I think that whole campus should get drugged tested because that could make the whole school safer.
