The River Valley Board of Education has approved a mandatory drug testing policy that will be in place for the 2015-16 school year. The goal of this policy is to create a drug free educational environment while looking out for the health and safety of our students. It is also our hope that this policy will serve as a deterrent for students if and when they are faced with the choice of trying drugs. This is a mandatory testing policy for anyone in grades 9-12 that plans to participate in extracurricular activities, clubs, organizations or drives/parks at school.
