How often are students overdosing at school in FCPS HS? Is the problem overblown by media?

I was shocked to find that this friend got overdosed. Just wonderful family, both highly educated and involved. Dont know what happened.

You don't know them well if you lost touch, lady.

Kids “experimenting” these days can easily put them in a coffin. This nothing to mess around with.

No, it is not. However, deaths from overdose went up steeply between 2020 and 2021 and it is a significant issue to raise with our kids and to be vigilant about

However, we don't need to make up facts.

What liar you are. Even dea.gov says so.

They don't just do it at school. You hear about the cases that happen at school because there are witnesses when someone finds a kid down in a bathroom and yells for help. It's much easier to keep it quiet when it happens at home and the parents find their child unresponsive.

I agree that discipline for bad behavior is a problem across the county but one thing schools will discipline for is substance abuse. A kid who is found with or sells Schedule I or II drugs will get kicked out a lot faster than a kid who threatens to shoot up a school or injures a staff member.

Which school ever kicked out a kid for illegal drugs?

The black ones.

WHICH school in Fairfax County? Zero.

I went to one of the pyramid information meetings. They said they don’t expel kids, they try to get them help.

LOL. My head is firmly screwed on tight. I’ve been told over and over again it’s not an issue. Like I said we had yet another OD case at our HS. I’m frustrated by the lack of communication about the situation in our schools.

FCPS has a great PR department....world class to hide the problems

About 3 or 4 weeks ago, a boy OD’d at McLean HS. The SRO had to use Narcan on him.

I want numbers. Staff talk in the abstract when the problem is very real. They don’t need to report by school. But they could report totals by quarter so people may be prompted to take action.

Numbers would expose their massive failure. Why would they do that? They don’t care what you want.

The failure is from the parents, not the schools.

The failure is anyone who FAILS
to enforce effective CONSEQUENCES
for BAD behavior.

Odd that you didn’t post when it happened.

In Arlington County, a student OD'd and sadly passed away at one of the high schools a few months ths ago. There have been at least 2 overdoses in the HS I work at in Fairfax this year. They do not publicize it even to the staff. I found out through students talking in my classes.

Who exactly is allowing taxpayer funded public schools to cover-up these drug poisonings on public school property? I know that the media is complicit in these cover-ups. It’s a relatively new phenomenon.

At our school the admin treats it like “nothing to see here, please move along”. I get they don’t want to draw attention to the victim or their family, but the result is a desensitized community. The OD is a nuisance until the person can be moved and the school day can return to the status quo. Things aren’t right for anyone.

OMG. It’s like the kid never existed. Awful.

I’m sure the school pressures the family to keep quiet. Despicable.

That's the way we feel. Keep wondering what we did wrong.

Ask yourself why don’t you know our country has been flooded with fentanyl. And then tell yourself “nice” families like yours need to wake-up, because no family is immune to the pandemic of fentanyl poisoning. It’s on every corner, but you need to rip off your sunglasses to see it.

We can thank everyone who voted for open borders. What exactly did you expect? Everything is going according to plan. Why are you complaining now?

Yawn. Get a new line. This one is stupid and stale.
