Dinwiddie Kindergartner Suspended for Drugs

An area kindergarten student is suspended for bringing what officials believe is marijuana to school. The incident happened Wednesday at Rohoic Elementary School.

According to school officials, a kindergarten teacher noticed a student playing with something in his pocket. The teacher asked the boy to turn the item over and that's when the boy pulled out what we are told was a small baggie of marijuana.

Dinwiddie Schools Superintendent Dr. Charles Maranzano, Jr., says, "I can say this ... there was no intent to distribute or use the drug on school property. That certainly is a relief."

But, the incident was still a shock to Dinwiddie School Superintendent Dr. Charles Maranzano. He tells 8NEWS that school officials are now investigating how the drugs ended up in the little boy's pocket.

Dr. Marazano says, "It's something the child has access to either at home or in the community that concerns us very much."

We are told other students in the class never saw the small baggie because the teacher immediately confiscated it. The child was allowed to return to his seat until a school resource officer could be brought in from another county school.

Under Dinwiddie School guidelines, any child, regardless of age, is automatically suspended for 10 days if they bring drugs to school.

8NEWS obtained a copy of the county code of conduct. School officials are required to seek to have the child expelled. But, the school board may determine that special circumstances exist and another form of discipline is appropriate.

Dr. Marazano says, "In this case, I don't think the School Board will be interested in expelling the kindergarten child but, we do have to take a look at the facts."

8NEWS has obtained a copy of the letter sent home with Rohoic Elementary Students today informing parents about the incident. In it, principal Veronica Pitts says, "No children were ever in any danger; however, we are very concerned that a very young child had access to what appeared to be marijuana."

8NEWS also spoke with a Rohoic parent. She says she's talked with her children about the dangers of drugs. Parent Kathy Powell says, "We've already discussed it with our children . And told them that people can approach them and offer them things in the neighborhood. They know to say no."

8NEWS spoke with the Dinwiddie Sheriff's Department. They confirm they're investigating the incident.

Wow, 10 days sounds sort of severe. When I was in school the most severe suspension was 9 days for :whack: fighting. This kid sounds like he's getting a raw deal.;)

someone should teach them that the sooner they start drinking vodka and smoking cigarettes the sooner they become normal, responsible adults and stay free from all that dope.

How true, my friend. Lucky for the kid that all they found was weed. If they had caught him with shrooms then he would be facing the mandatory maximum penalty - 500 hours of having to watch C-Span!
