School District of Tomahawk conducts drug search
On Thursday morning the School District of Tomahawk,
in cooperation with the Tomahawk Police Department, conducted a drug search of
the school premises. Participating
law enforcement agencies used three drug dogs to search the middle school and
high school lockers and hallways, locker rooms, Band and Art room storage
areas, and all of the District’s parking lots. The search resulted in one case of marijuana found in a car
in the high school parking lot.
There were no drugs found inside the building.
This drug search was part of an ongoing attempt to
raise awareness of drug and alcohol use and abuse by school-aged children as
well to increase the District’s efforts to keep its schools drug and alcohol
free. The district and Tomahawk
Police Department are working together to plan for additional drug searches
throughout the school year.
