Drug search at Worth County High

WORTH COUNTY,GA --
Sylvester police and SPD's K-9 unit conducted a drug search at the Worth County School Friday morning.

High school students were in lockdown and required to stay in the classrooms until the search was finalized.

Drug dogs searched across school and campus grounds.

Students stayed in lockdown for about two hours before they were released to their regularly scheduled classes.

Worth county high principal Dr. Russ Chesser had this to say about the search:

"The superintendent along with the administration and staff of Worth County High School are committed to having a safe and drug free school. Random drug search is one method or deterrent to keep drugs out of our school to help keep our school safe and focused on learning."

Sylvester police have not yet released any information on findings, if any, as a result of the search.

I would never send my kids to a public school, primarily because wasting 2 hours of their lives which could have been actually spent educating them properly, in order to search for drugs (which may not have been found in the first place!!) is just a huge waste of a person's time in life.
 
Yeah, because having a k-9 unit and police swarming through a school while defacto imprisoning students there for two hours makes people feel real safe. Not to mention bringing students themselves up on charges if they get caught, potentially ruining their lives or landing them in the juvie system.

Fascist crime and punishment.
 
I've never heard of this happening at Australian schools before, public or private (altho it may have, i'm not too sure). Short article but I thought it was way OTT and was interested in what others thought on it, like the 3 opinions above so far.
 
happened in my high school before i graduated years back... thank god. it was hellish. USA too... damn no protection of rights exists on the individual level anymore...
