Education

Recent studies show that 8,000 Americans try drugs for the first time each day. The vast majority of new drug users are younger than 18. Drug use among American students continues to pose dangerous health risks as well as devastating social and educational consequences to young people today.

“The assistance of EDPM in establishing our Board policy was invaluable. Many districts have requested copies of the policy in recent years.”
