How to Decrease Drug Use in Schools

Drug Detecting K9’s in schools are the key to lowering narcotic use, abuse, and distribution within any private or public school. When drugs are used in schools, there is a drastic increase in the probability of crime, significantly lowers student performance, and substantially increases school costs in both monetary and human resources. The presence of a highly trained narcotic detecting K9, as well as the knowledge that this dog is regularly present, is a powerful deterrent against the possession and trafficking of illegal drugs by any student or staff member. Not only can dogs sniff 10,000-100,000 times better than a human, they also pose as a great visual deterrent to all those students looking to use while at school. 

According to federal law, schools are permitted to use drug dogs to sniff out contraband during unannounced, random searches. And even though the Fourth Amendment prohibits unreasonable search and seizure, the use of drug sniffing and detecting dogs in schools is fully permitted because students do not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in the school.
