SCHOOL SYSTEM PROGRAM

Help Your School Stay Safe And Drug Free

 Dear Educator,

You’ve probably already seen the statistics.

The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University (CASA) twelfth annual National Survey of American Attitudes on Substance Abuse found that 80% of high school students, and 44% of middle schoolers have witnessed such things as:

  • Illegal drug use
  • Illegal drug deals
  • Illegal drug possession
  • Students drunk, and/or students high on drugs

As the drug epidemic takes an ever-firmer grip on our nation’s schools, is it any wonder that acts of violence continue to rise?

As an educator, you want to keep your students safe and secure while you provide them with the best education possible. Keeping drugs out of your school is the only way to do that.

Deter Drug Use In Your School

Without Incurring Any Financial Investment Or Risk

Here at The Council on Alcohol and Drugs, we have 40 years of experience in preventing drug use.

Our drug free workplace programs have helped more than 7,600 Georgia businesses achieve state certification as a drug free workplace. We have more than 1,200 companies as corporate members of our drug free workplace compliance program.

Fundraising not your strongest suit? We understand the dynamics of needing to raise money. Why not make a real difference in your students' lives and community, while earning money for your school?

We’d like to help your school become a Drug Free School Zone – without incurring any financial expense.

When your school becomes a prevention partner with The Council on Alcohol and Drugs, your school will empower parents to keep their kids drug free while the school benefits financially through the sale of the 5-Step Drug Free Family Plan. 

Every time the parent of one of your students purchases a family plan from our discrete, confidential Web site, your school receives 7% of the sale.

  • You’ll be helping parents keep their kids drug free as random testing has been proven to deter drug use
  • You’ll be keeping your students safer as lowering drug use has been proven to lower the risk of violence as well
  • You’ll be helping students perform better academically as drug use has been proven to hurt academic performance
  • And you’ll be making extra money for your school in the process

 Plus, we’ll provide you with everything you need to get the program going in your school.

  • Informational materials to help you implement the program
  • Ready-to-send emails and letters to parents explaining the program
  • A banner, handouts, articles and booklets promoting the program to students

The 5 Steps in our Drug Free Family Plan have been repeatedly tested and proven to work by the federal government. Making them available to the families in your school will be a win-win for you, your students, their parents – and the entire community!
