at my school, we have two police men there all the time. They like never leave! We have 3 security guards that are constantly roaming the campus. We have administors constantly roaming around as well. You MUST have a red or pink pass that a teacher gives you if your in the hallway. If it's not a red or pink pass then it must be a hand written pass that is signed by a teacher and you must on your way or near your destination. No one is allowed out of the classrooms 15 minutes after the bell for class and 15 minutes before the last bell getting out of class.
needless to say, we're used to drug searches. We have, I believe, four different "high rank" gangs at our school and a bunch of potheads. so. . . . we're pretty much used to being watched. Oh, and during lunch there is a teacher or administrator monitoring just about every area.
But it's not as bad as it sounds.
I think drug searches are alright. I mean why not?
