My wife and I pay a lot of money a semester so our two children can go to private school.
We want them to have a better education than they can get in the public school area.
The private school offers the best academics for science, math, and technology. The school has state of the art equipment that only laboratories and college rooms have access to. The school has a zero tolerance for drugs, violence, or weapons. If you get into trouble for an offense in one of these categories, the student risks expulsion. Each one of the students including both of my children and their parents have to sign a code of conduct policy at the beginning of the school year. Each year that the children have been attending the school, they have had to fill out an honor code and read the contents of the book. My son still decided to break the rules by transporting recreational marijuana to school. My wife and I had recreational marijuana in our home. It was in the bedroom and a place where we believed it would be locked up and safe from the kids. After all, recreational marijuana is legal in the state for adults over the age of 21. My son broke into the box and took a bag of marijuana to school. The bag of marijuana smelled horrible and it was very clear that the illegal substance was inside of my son’s locker. The school contacted both my wife and I and we had to come down to the school where the police were waiting with the dean of students.
