Forum: Drugs in your school… How Serious is it?


May: Drugs in Your School…

How Serious Is It?

Tuesday, May 17, 10am-12noon and 6:30-8:30pm



Operation: PARENT Headquarters,

13029 Middletown Industrial Blvd., Louisville, KY 40223

Presented by: Dan Orman, Assistant Superintendent, Oldham County Schools and Jonathan Wosoba, Principal, Buckner Alternative HS

Description: Imagine taking a call from the school to find out your child has been caught with drugs on school premises. It happens more often than you think…and no family is exempt from the possibility. Come hear from two people who deal with this daily in our schools. Dan Orman, Assistant Superintendent, Oldham County Schools and Jonathan Wosoba, Principal, Buckner Alternative HS will share with parents their unique perspective on the rising use of drug and alcohol related incidences at school. What are teens using? How are they getting this into school? What happens when they get caught? What role do parents play in the process? They will also share how they worked with the district and community to put safety nets and procedures in place to assist schools and families. These are common sense techniques that can be duplicated in any school community. Solving these deadly problems is truly a community responsibility and parent education is the critical step in the entire process. Please join us for this important conversation…it could be a life saver for your son or daughter.
