Our local school has found my Grandson guilty of smoking Marijuana on school property before the start of school. He has been suspended from school for the rest of the year. We have been to the school board they upheld the superintendent's decision.
On November the 27th my grandson was with friends in the school parking lot before the start of school. They were smoking cigarettes which is against school policy, too. He was called from last hour class and told that 5 students reported to the principal that he was smoking marijuana that morning in the parking lot. He allowed them to do a search of his locker and person. They even smelled his clothing. He offered to do a drug test. He was suspended from school for 10 days while they reviewed his case to determine if further action would be taken.
We finally found a lab to do an independent test and all results were negative.
Because the appearance of his urine was clear the school rejected the findings, stating he could have flushed his system.
There was a student smoking marijuana on the grounds and despite his not wanting to we made my grandson tell school officials. So far we cannot seem to get a copy of the statements made or what other so called facts the Administration has.
We have followed the board of education steps for this. We are not a rich family and cannot really afford to hire a lawyer so I am at a loss of how to proceed. I want my grandson back in school and his named cleared of this false charge.
