Question 3 • [HSHEAC] Health Sem 1 (26-27)

Sarah is eating lunch with friends outside in the commons area of her school. One of Sarah’s friends offers to share a marijuana joint with her. What could be the outcome if Sarah were caught smoking marijuana at school?

Answer
A
Nothing will happen because she did not buy the joint.
B
She could be suspended from school.
C
Nothing will happen because she is underage.
D
The consequences would be up to Sarah’s parents.

Explanation

Schools can discipline students for using or possessing marijuana on school grounds. Sarah could be suspended, even though the joint belonged to her friend. Not buying it or being underage does not make smoking it at school consequence-free, and the school—not just her parents—may impose discipline.
