hey everyone i am trying to become a social science teacher in a public school. i know i will get drug tested pre employment and i have heard that when you need to renew your license you will get finger printed and drug tested again as if you were getting hired. i know this may vary but generally do public school teacher get randomly tested? i would imagine this would be rare because it costs so much money and why would they risk loosing a teacher in the middle of the year?. do they merley threaten you with random testing and then not follow through with it? the county i am interested in says it drug tests for routine physical exams- how likley is it i would get one of these out of the blue? do you think its possibile to get an annual drug test? the county also says it randomly drug tests school employees in "high risk" positions. i am assuming these are employees like bus drivers, maintanence, janitors etc... all in all i want as many opinions as possibile. please feel free to share your stories or stories of people you know/ anything that would be helpful...thanks

My district DOES randomly test teachers. They are required to test a certain percentage of teachers every year randomly. We are not protected under a union which is why I think we test more than others. Sorry...I know this is probably not what you wanted to hear. All districts are different though

Im pretty sure it is different everywhere, I remember I had a spanish teacher that came in higher than god, and alls we would do is watch ice age or the grinch in spanish while he slept.
