The party did in fact happen.  Its location is known to many people.  The parents were out of town.  The tweet was from the "official Churchill student Twitter feed".  It does not make it more reliable that if it was from Joe Blow but I'll bet it was pretty accurate.

They should just forget these programs.  They make no impact.  Its like DARE.  After twenty years of wasting time in the classroom they found out that kids who take the DARE course are just as likely to use drugs in the future as those who didn't take the course.  Montgomery County finally pulled their DARE officers out of the schools several years ago.[/quote]

I'm not questioning whether the party happened. I'm sure it did happen.

However, I am questioning your assertion, based on the fact that 5 kids threw up and 3 more couldn't walk, proves these programs "have no impact" for the rest of the student body. What about the kids who [b]weren't[/b] throwing up? Do we know if they were influenced? No, we don't know.[/quote]

Do you really think that the other party goers were not drinking and just didn't throw up?  Do you believe that this was the only party held by Churchill students that night?  If the truth were known there were probably ten but this one got some publicity because the Twitter man was there.  Since teenagers have chosen to share their private lives with the world via Twitter and Facebook I'd suggest that you monitor a few of the Churchill student's accounts.  Very revealing about the amount of alcohol and sex that happens on a given weekend.[/quote]
