LOCAL SCHOOLS SHOULD TEST FOR DRUGS

EDITOR:

After reading the recent Wausau Daily Herald article, I was shocked,
to say the least. I could not believe that in this day and age the
Wausau School District (and other districts in the area) have not
long ago required mandatory pre-employment drug testing.

I am now retired, but when employed here in Wausau my employer
required mandatory pre-employment drug testing more than 25 years ago.

Do these districts believe it is okay for their employees, teachers
and others, to be drug users?

It is time they changed their policy immediately. Kim Hall from the
D.C. Everest Area School District was right, as quoted in the story,
in saying, "We want good staff."
