JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 27 - Drug-Sniffing Dogs

School officials do have the right to use drug-sniffing dogs. The teachers of the school ASSUME that maybe the students could have drugs in their backpacks or maybe in their lockers. If the dog smells any drugs near a backpack or a locker it will RESPOND by sitting down right next to it, then will bark twice to let the officer know that he/she found drugs. The officers make the dogs go through a PROCESS of training that will make them better at finding drugs or for other uses. When the dogs become experts at finding drugs, that's when they are called "Drug-sniffing Dogs" and are used to find drugs. Therefore, school officials have the right to use drug-sniffing dogs.
