The line between public safety and maintaining a high standard of privacy for all is a razor-thin line; the US government itself deals with it every day. This is a very serious complication that administrators and security forces at Coppell High School must address: It is in the administrators' best interest to prevent drug use in the school so as to stop the spread of any conflict (i.e. any behavior typically delinquent such as interpersonal violence and school dropout) that they could potentially cause. However, it is also crucial to maintain a certain level of privacy so that students do not lash out at administrators and school morale remains fairly high. Numerous students and other relevant candidates were interviewed and the response was clearly unanimous. This means that medications are a problem that could very well have destructive effects on CHS. Now that this has been proven, the goal is to demonstrate to high-level school officials that this is a problem, and as a result, another goal is to devise the most effective solution possible to eliminate this problem to the greatest extent while maintaining maximum heyday of student-to-student privacy. Drugs are absolutely everywhere around Coppell High School and are certainly the predecessors of much more enormous and dangerous problems that pose a very significant threat to CHS. Several factors attest to this being a rational and imminent threat that merits the attention of the Coppell Independent School District. Many studies have been conducted on the effects of drug use in schools and what other destructive problems it may lead to in the future.
