In general, when students appear intoxicated or under the influence and are present in school, it's the school's responsibility to keep them there until dismissal or a parent/guardian can pick them up. If you become aware of a student under the influence, contact both your school administrator and school safety agent.
These are steps to be taken at the school level:
- Parent notification
- EMS, depending on the severity of the situation
- Student cannot be allowed to leave the building
- Student must be seen by the school nurse
