Athletic Drug Testing Policy
Students who participate in high school athletic programs not required
for graduation are eligible for random drug testing.
A student shall submit a consent to test form for each sport in which the
student desires to participate. The student shall submit the form to the
testing coordinator seven days before the student participates in that
sport. The consent to test form must be signed by the student and his or
her legal guardian. A student becomes eligible for testing upon
submission of the consent to test form. A student who refuses to submit
a consent to test form is ineligible to participate in that sport.
A student remains eligible for random drug and alcohol testing from the
date the consent to test form is submitted throughout the season of that
sport. A student may be randomly selected for drug and alcohol testing
more than one time per season.
If a student eligible for random drug and alcohol testing withdraws
from an athletic team, the student may submit an athletic team drop
form to the testing coordinator. A submitted athletic team drop form
signed by the student, parent or legal guardian, coach, and principal
effectively removes the student from the random testing pool for that
sport.
Testing will occur only on student contact days during the academic
year.
Selection of eligible students for testing will be conducted on a random
basis, to be carried out as follows:
- The testing coordinator will compile a roster of ID numbers of
students eligible for testing.
- During each athletic season, the testing coordinator will randomly
select ID numbers for the student-athletes participating in a sport from
a pool containing the ID numbers of all the student-athletes
participating in a sport.
