Drug talk planned Mr. Farquharson, a ge- ography teacher at Port Perry High School, along with the members of the school community council have organized a drug and substance abuse meeting to take place on Wednes- day April 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the library of the high school. The topic of drugs and substance abuse was moti- vated by a few students in the high school because of their concern that it is "an ongoing problem," said Farquharson. "The purpose of the meeting is so that parents can be informed." At the meeting an R.C.M.P constable will be present to discuss many of the issues and problems that are facing our schools and young people today. There will be a discus- sion of the issues as well as a chance for parents, stu- dents, teachers and mem- bers of the community to ask questions, become more informed and share ideas on this extremely important topic.
