It shall be the general policy of the Board of Education to affirm that all programs in the District that receive Federal funds shall guarantee that their workplaces are free of controlled substances.  “Controlled substance” means a controlled substance in schedules I through of Section 202 of the Controlled Substances Act (21USC 812) and as further defined in regulation at 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1308.11-1308.15. An acknowledgment form shall be signed by the Superintendent indicating that the District is in full compliance with the Drug–Free Workplace Act. The policy shall guarantee that not only federally funded programs, but the entire District is free of controlled substances.

“Workplace” is defined as a school building or other school premises; any school-owned vehicles or any other school-approved vehicle used to transport students to and from school or school activities; off school property during any school-sponsored or school – approved activity, event or function, such as a field trip or athletic event, where students are under the jurisdiction of the School District.

The Board of Education directs the administration to develop regulations to comply with this policy, and further supports such actions and activities of the administration as shall be required to maintain a drug-free workplace.
