CHEMICAL ABUSE PREVENTION/INTERVENTION
Padua Franciscan High School views with grave concern the serious implications of drug, alcohol, and tobacco use by young people. Padua Franciscan High School continues to seek ways to educate students about the dangers of the misuse and abuse of drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. In the interest of student and staff health, a climate is created in the schools so that people with problems may seek and receive help. Parents and/or students who need assistance should contact their school counselor or the school’s Campus Minister who will provide information and guidance or assist in making an appropriate outside referral.
Padua takes an active approach to promoting a chemical free lifestyle though the Theology, Health, and Freshmen Orientation curriculum, as well as with the Teen Institute Organization. For information regarding alcohol, drugs, and tobacco with respect to athletic participation, please refer to the Controlled Substance Policy section under Athletics.
