Providing procedures for the early identification and intervention with students who

are having personal and drug and alcohol-related difficulties in school, the SAP

students can get to the help they need. Teachers, administrators, guidance staff, and

parents can make referrals to the SAP, and students can refer themselves. The only

mandatory referrals are made when a student violates the school's chemical use

policy.
