What happened

On February 10, 2026, the board approved a mandatory drug-testing policy for students in extracurricular activities in grades 7-12, using urine tests only. A parent had raised concerns, and in January the board had considered limiting testing to grades 9-12 before keeping 7-12.

Why it matters to families

Junior high and high school students who join sports or other activities must agree to drug tests. Families may want to know the rules before signing up.

The evidence

February 10, 2026 minutes: approval of 'FZ Mandatory Drug Testing, with the policy reading 7th – 12th grade and the urine-only change,' 5-0. January 13, 2026 minutes record the parent concern and the postponement.
