Wayne teachers learn about classroom drug abuse

Posted: Updated:

Wayne county teachers met at Spring Valley High school Wednesday for a teachers academy meeting.

One class focused on synthetic drugs and dealing with students.

Tim White of Prestera Mental Health Center gave an instructional seminar speaking to teachers about new ways students are bringing drugs into schools.

White said new drugs are constantly being marketed toward students and some can be deadly.

Teachers say the classes are very helpful in keeping drugs out of the classroom.
