Dr. James Wasser, superintendent, hopes that the wands will deter students from drinking at, and before, school functions.
"This is not about punishing students who drink," said Wasser, emphasizing that the district is taking a "proactive role in keeping our students safe and helping those who may have a drinking problem."Since the district has a no tolerance policy, any student testing positive for alcohol at the prom will be immediately removed from the event and suspended from school in accordance with board policy.
"I have no doubt that as word gets out, the wands will serve as a deterrent," added Wasser.
