[quote:Anonymous Coward 15256858:MV8yMTI0MTQxXzM1ODQyNDI5XzQyRTQ4RTY3] There could be another motive/agenda. All these hair strands are tagged to the names of each student. They don't need 60 strands to drug test so perhaps some of those strands will be sent out for DNA profiling. Course they could test DNA with just one strand. Remember that things never are what they appear to be. If this flies in this school...watch for it to expand. [/quote]
Original Message
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (CBS St. Louis) — A Kansas City high school will begin collecting hair from students to conduct mandatory drug tests.
KHSB-TV reports that Rockhurst High School will start the random drug testing during the 2013-14 school year.The school will collect 60 strands of hair from the student and test for several types of drugs, including marijuana and cocaine. If a student comes back with a positive drug test, that student will have 90 days to get drug-free. The station reports the file will be destroyed for a student who tests positive after graduation and colleges and universities will never know about the failed test.
