Parents and CMS students and Citizens of Mecklenburg County hereby petition CMS Board of Education to:
- implement a comprehensive education program that includes alcohol and drug use prevention education that must be available to every child in North Carolina schools in kindergarten through high school; and
- to provide staff development to train educators and support personnel to implement a comprehensive alcohol and drug use prevention education program.
The teachers need to be prepared because they are the ones seeing the signs first. Train them properly so they can actually spot the issues.
