Guest Paul J. Berg Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 ~ Form The Portland (Oregon) Tribune - July 17, 2007 By now, everyone's heard of the Vernonia elementary school principal who was caught smoking pot on a recent Friday evening at Fort Stevens State Park and cited for possession of a controlled substance. After reviewing the case, the local school board deemed it a "single incident of poor judgment," and the 41-year-old principal was allowed to keep his job. The same thing could happen in Portland, because the school district has no set policy on teachers or administrators getting caught for pot possession, and apparently it hasn't come up before. "They could be terminated immediately if it was a chronic problem Quote
