Norton



NORTON - School officials are giving Norton High School students caught using drugs or alcohol anywhere, a choice: either a 30-day suspension from extracurricular school activities or attend a substance abuse program.

The school committee approved a revised substance abuse outside of school policy Monday night, two months after instituting the 30-day ban and directing school officials to revise it with the student council's input.

Under the revised policy, students caught using mind-altering or performance-enhancing drugs have a choice of penalties for the first offense.
