Suspension for look-alike drug

I wouldn't go that far at all. I have a lot of respect for school administrators. Their jobs are terribly difficult and they are underappreciated. They make their fair share of mistakes and get blamed for them accordingly, but they also get blamed for countless things that are beyond their control.

That's the truth. Much of this nonsense comes from these zero-tolerance policies passed by school boards. Zero-tolerance takes away any ability of school leaders to actually lead. So in place of leadership and common sense, we have kids getting suspended for possessing jell-o, scissors, or tylenol.
