Nazareth Area High School Contraband Sweep Ended

Well, the routine search of the Nazareth Area High School ended at 10:25AM. Here's a quote from an email I just received:

This will also serve as the response to any parents or press who would contact any HS staff member during this time.

Nazareth Area High School has completed conducting our annual canine search of the building and all lockers. Any illegal contraband located within the building will be addressed as per the Nazareth Area School District Drug and Alcohol Policy. In order to facilitate this search by the administration and local law enforcement officials, building security procedures for a non-emergency situation were implemented.

To our knowledge, at this time, there was no present danger of any illegal drugs or paraphernalia present on school property. This was simply a routine search that was conducted to ensure that our students and staff are able to teach and learn in a safe and drug free environment.

The building security procedures have been lifted and all students and staff have resumed their regular duties and mode of operation.

Thank you for your support and cooperation in ensuring that our students and staff are able to operate and receive their education in a safe and drug free environment.
