Student Handbook
Substance Use and Abuse
The CDC participates in the Substance Abuse/Administrative Procedure [Policy #5175C] adopted by the Regional Governing Board of the CDC.
Students found in possession of or under the influence of alcohol or any other controlled substance will be subject to the following sanctions:
| A minimum three days suspension from CDC programs/classes. | |
| Where appropriate, referral to the student’s home school for further actions or consequences as determined by the sending school administration and policies. | |
| A re-entry meeting with the CDC administration is required, and may result in providing certain conditions for re-entry. | |
| In situations where safety is an issue, a student may have to submit to a drug test in order to be reinstated to a program, lab, shop or Co-op placement. |
The CDC cooperates with law enforcement in cases of substance possession and use
