Cracking down on foreign drug kingpins does nothing to help parents who think their teenagers are using drugs. The true battleground in the drug war is in the school, and it is there that concerned parents must focus their efforts. This book explains what parents need to do in order to stop the flow of drugs through their local schools, creating completely drug-free learning environments through tougher anti-drug policies, teacher education programs, and intensive drug prevention curriculums. And while this book certainly provides practical advice for parents, it is also an excellent resource for educators and administrators who are worried about high drop-out rates and increasing violence in their schools as a result of drugs.
