[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the LCPS teacher. To be clear, I don’t want kids arrested for ODing. What I WANT is for the county to invest in alternative school options to better support students who habitually take drugs and OD at school. By the time you have a THIRD OFFENSE, you’re in crisis. ISR is not appropriate anymore. You as a student should be placed in an alternative setting with more support, more supervision, receiving drug counseling as well as academic instruction and AWAY from the home school environment that isn’t working for you. This is for the sake of the addicted student as well as the other students and staff who deserve their school to function like a school, not a drug crisis center.

At this time LCPS does not have this program. There is no alternative placement option for students in drug crisis. There needs to be. [/quote]

100%

I grew up in LCPS system and we had an alternative school back then. Loudoun needs one more than ever.

Especially since the ISR is a joke at most schools. My DD took a photo and showed me of the ISR kids napping in the room. And yet kids in study hall who put their heads down for a nap get reprimanded because study hall is for doing work not sleeping. When my DS was in a different LCPS high school, the ISR teacher ordered pizza for the room on a Friday.  [/quote]
