I also think that it shouldn't be just the athletes, it should be all groups that are representing the high school...For way to long its been acceptable to cater to the "athletes" and let them slide by because they are the "elite"...what about when they graduate and are introduced to the "real world"...jobs require a drug test, why not prepare them for reality...if this has been an ongoing problem, do what you've got to do to get it under control instead of turning a blind eye I have to agree with this, its about time!
