Thoughts?

While I'd like to think that this surely can't be happening locally, I'm afraid that could be naive thinking.

It IS frightening! Teens see the results and other pro athletes exceling and think this is what they need to progress. It also goes back to peer pressure... I'm glad the schools are now focusing on the education and testing in their sports programs.

The latest release from Marion County Schools states "Random student drug testing for steroids has been cut from the budget because of high costs; however, other student drug testing remains in place, including testing for students in extra-curricular activities."

Thoughts?
