The district has a duty to teach students proper citizenship and respect for the law, and teachers have an obligation to serve as role models for students. Because the district teaches students about the dangers of chemical abuse and because the district is entrusted with the supervision of minors, the district cannot have employees performing duties while under the influence of dangerous substances or substances which adversely affect reaction time and good judgment. Information concerning past illegal acts will be considered along with the time of the offense, the seriousness and nature of the violation, any rehabilitations and your subsequent employment history.
