I'm writing an essay on if drug tests should be allowed in schools. i have good pts such as: if student athletes can not obey a simple contract at the beginning of a sports season, how are they going to obey the laws in the real world. my second pt is drug tests would lower the danger of drugs, but i believe i could make that stronger pt. Finally,&amp;nbsp; if drug tests were mandator, more students would stop doing drugs because they would know their consequences. However, somehow, i want to put soemthing about peer pressure and the thought of good role models that would keep securti for the school. Can you please give me some pointers for my essay.
