Today at Westfield High School at about 8:05AM, there was a drug raid. Classrooms were all forced to lock down, and the police department brought in hounds and visited EVERY locker pod to sniff for illegal substances. Several students were caught possessing marijuana, ecstacy tablets, heroin, acid, and many other forms of narcotics.

One sophomore in gym walking back from BowlAmerica (which counts as a unit) was caught possessing a large plastic bag of anti-depressants, which he intended to sell on school grounds.

At least 10 students were apprehended and are facing expulsion and serious criminal charges. Students possessing heroin needles and cocaine were arrested immediately. Rumor states that approximately 37 students in total, were caught.

3 students are facing expulsion and arrest after dogs found containers with marijuana brownies laced with ecstacy, in two senior locker bays.

What was once among problems associated with schools like South Lakes and Langley High seems to be more prominent at Westfield High than is expressed by students and faculty. The Fairfax County Police Dept is currently investigating on several cases at Westfield High School, targeting students and staff that might be affiliated with such illegal business, in hopes to end this drug problem.

ya my history teacher sed it was part of a massive sting operation goin on for the last 2 weeks to track down a buncha students with weed and coke and stuff

some kid in my algebra class (who i know is a major pothead) was removed from class and u could see them arresting him from the classroom door window

i heard from a friend that some seniors were doin heroin "in honor" of that girl who died last week and some kid almost died in this "memorial"

Where there are teens there are drugs. It doesn't matter what school or in which community. Sad, but true.

is this in the news???

yay! illegal search and seizure! \o/

isnt the school system great? they teach about the constitution and then violate the students' rights on a daily basis. i love fcps.


"the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish."

the kids who had weed shouldnt get in trouble, it's harmless. the kids dealin crack and heroine should be kicked out though. that stuff is dangerous. what the hell is happening at whs? i wish i still went to chantilly...

I doubt you could classify this as illegal search and seizure. Do the kids own the school? The county owns the school so they can search all they want. Kids got what they deserved but rich mommies and daddies will probably bail them out.

actually, during teenage years, mental development is altered by "mind altering" drugs, legal or illegal. sure, if you want to be a permanent stoner, smoke up daily.

opening someone's belonging (e.g. a backpack) would be an illegal search.

i smoke green every once in a while, but i definetely wouldnt consider myself a "permanent stoner." and if i keep smokin the herb my whole life, that would be tight. theres nothin wrong with it.

have you ever heard of someone beatin their wife, rapin someone, killin someone while they're high? no. have you heard of someone doin those things while they're drunk? all the time. yet, alochol is largely accepted and weed isn't. doesn't make sense to me.

opening someone's belonging (e.g. a backpack) would be an illegal search.

Have you read the signs as you drive onto a FPS school property. They can search any car, anything on school property they want.

Kids are buying antidepressants for use as recreational drugs? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. They should lock them up just for being retards.

I want to transfer to South Lakes, where they don't have the drug problems like Westfield. Sounds like the advantaged, wealthy, white kids lack parental oversight in Westfield.

If a dog detects the odor of drugs in the backpack, that would be sufficient probable cause.

Take that you little snot nosed brats.

What do you expect WHS parents are too concerned over who has the biggest house or SUV to think about what their kids are up to. Besides mommy and daddy will just hire an expensive lawyer and get them off. Then Vince will be on here again bitching about the unfair justice system.

BTW good work FCPD, haul the little pricks off to juvey. I bet those rich spoiled punks never saw it coming.

and that westfield student who's house burned down in Virginia Run, i bet her parents did it because of their mortgage - thats common practice in many upper-class neighborhoods these days

It's public property. There are no "students' rights."

hadley? her parents wouldnt do that

Not my post on the house burning down, obviously trolled, probably should register my name.

That's what I've always said, Westfield has one of the worst lack of parenting schools in the county.

I'm glad they started with Westfield aswell, I mean cops have their own vandetta against Westfield with the police shootings, VT shootings and that drunk brat who went and killed a woman on the road. They have no control, and hopefully the police will teach these kids a lesson. Way to be useful FCPD, keep up the good work.

VT Shooter, Michael Kennedy, Taylor (last name will be kept anonymous) - drunk driver, the 4 armed robbers last year, and now these heroin and coke dealers

all products of Westfield High

@ Steve K

That's exactly what i said over in that other thread. Parents around here just don't give a flying fuck, and then when their kid gets caught they can't understand why they would do such a thing. I'm glad i don't live in chandley farms or va run, bunch of snot nosed pricks live there. (the adults, not the kids). I hope this wakes some people the fuck up around here.

And as for the kids getting busted with weed...

I'm not gonna lie, i love smokin the herb. But if you bring it onto school grounds you're just fucking asking to get caught. They deserve to be arrested for being so careless, but in the end i hope they just get a slap on the wrist. Because like was said earlier, stoners don't cause as many problems as drunks, that's for damn sure.

And yes, cops can search anything that is inside of a school building. When i was in school my friend saw a kid get cavity searched. Even your ass is not safe.

Yeah heard about this this afternoon and becuase I have no life I couldnt wait to get home and post on Fairfax Underground. Damn students beat me to it (probably posting on proxies).

But yea evidenty the high ups in the FCPS are very pleased and if this makes the news they may be redeemed from the snow day call deal.

What girl died last week???

i cant believe 37 students at westfield were caught. every day our school reputation is going down and down. im glad these students were caught and they should be charged with criminal charges and should be arrested to learn their lesson. i hope this drug stuff stops soon.

welcome to westfield

i hope you like drugs and violence

The school is huge and just because bad things have come from our school doesnt mean everyone is that way.

Not all of us are rich
Not all of us are coke and heroin addicts.
Not all of us are murderers

I hate the image that is projected on us just because of a few dumbass kids and their mistakes and their retarded decision.

There are alot of good things that come from whs too no one ever talks about those, every school has their problems and i am proud to say i am a WHS alum....

I think its a problem with the generation not the school bc when i was there they did drug searches and found 3-4 kids with pot and no one with heroin, acid or coke. Get your shit together and stop making us look bad

I went school in FFX many many years ago and it was routine for FFX police to bring in a drug sniffing dog or do locker searches a couple times a year.

Usually the cops busted about five students. Four of the students were no surprise, typical burnouts, but every once in a while someone would get busted who was a complete surprise; A band member, some nerd, honor student etc...

I would expect that the FFX police will probably being doing more locker searches like this at other schools.

The drug problem at Westfield is nothing new although its getting a huge amount of attention recently. When I was at Westfield you could get any drug at any time. It was way too easy. People would show up to school all fucked up, kids would buy and sell drugs in the bathrooms and locker bays inbetween classes.

Now, if anyone remembers, this is the same school where a teacher was fired for bringing a loaded gun to school. The Virginia Tech shooter graduated from Westfield as well as the man who killed two police officers at the Sully Station Police Station.

The administration at Westfield always seemed to turn a blind eye to the problem because they didnt want the school to get a bad rap for whatever reason. They need to get off their fucking high horse and fix the problems before someone else dies over there.

the difference is that "weed" can have permanent mental effects though drinking does kill your liver. personally, i think they are both stupid and they might as well outlaw both of them as well as smoking because let's face it, smoking causes lung cancer. yes, it would all go underground and some argue more people would try it because of it's illegal (rebellious) appeal. to those people, i ask you to look at russia, the nation with the highest rate of alcoholism and a low legal drinking age.


"the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish."

russians drink a lot because life there is basically crap, and they are depressed... that can happen in a country with a high drinking age, also...

How much is it like Chantilly? I know a bunch of people transferred from Tilly when they first opened. Is it the same sort of crowd? It's weird to me that such a new school could already have a "reputation."

All high schools have drugs and what not, but what Chantilly does not have is two students that have done mass murders and a girl who killed someone for drunk driving.

Chantilly is also not as rich, with Chantilly you got kids coming in from Brookfield, Shenadoah Crossings, etc. with westfield it is richer overall so easier to hate on them, and they can afford more drugs. Also the administration is a lot tougher, I know two kids got kicked out one for bringing in a knife, which was shocking because this kid was real nerdy, but not one of those quiet scary kids and I highly doubt he woulda done anything with it. Then some dumb kid brought in a tazer. Chantilly actually looks for drugs and wrong in their students, and they don't take a blind eye like Westfield does; but yea I'm not kidding myself either, countless Chantilly kids do drugs as all do in the county, probably just as many as at Westfield. What I do know back from when I was in school, you don;t be stupid and bring them like the Westfield kids, probably cause the administration took such a blind eye in it. You wait till after school, to smoke, deal, shoot up whatever they do now a days.

I call for the police to take control of Westfield, It seems like they get in more trouble than Ballou HS in DC does now.

weed aint the only thing Gravis "smokes"!

hes all about rollin on the foreskin!

grow up REston Peace

I went to a meeting at Westfield HS (after school hours) last month. The place was absolutely TRASHED. When I went to use the restroom it was almost impossible to see the floor, it was covered in toilet paper, paper towels, homework handouts, and other misc trash. It's been 12 years since I was in HS, but I don't ever recall my classmates tearing the crap out of my schools like what I saw at westfield HS last month. I was angry on one hand, and sorry for the janitorial staff on the other.

You know not of what you talk about.
Seriously... Regardless, this is not the section to discuss it.
If I have the time to waste, talking to someone as ignorant as you, ill make a post....

Dont talk about something you have no clue of.

'the difference is that "weed" can have permanent mental effects though drinking does kill your liver.' 'let's face it, smoking causes lung cancer.'

Alcohol not only kills your liver, it kills your brain... in many many ways

In fact, it seems as if marijuana can CURE Lung cancer, you fool. Atleast according to the scientists at harvard.

The active ingredient in marijuana cuts tumor growth in common lung cancer in half and significantly reduces the ability of the cancer to spread, say researchers at Harvard University who tested the chemical in both lab and mouse studies.

Delta-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), inhibits EGF-induced growth and migration in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expressing non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Lung cancers that over-express EGFR are usually highly aggressive and resistant to chemotherapy.

@whs05Grad

The VT shooter was from Sulley Station, Michael Kennedy from London Towne, the girl arrested for manslaughter and drunk driving is from Herndon. Yes, all students from Westfield, none living in VA Run or Chandley Farms. Families in Virginia Run and Chandley Farms have the same problems as the rest of us. They drink, do drugs, sell drugs and yes are spoiled. Not all kids that go to Westfield are rich and spoiled as you seem to think. Kids from all economic levels attend Westfield.

VA Run is where the Westfield dealers live and sell their goodies to the kiddies.

Big schools suck, you tend to get bigger problems w/drugs n' such there. Really sucks for those aren't stoners or druggies because they didn't make the choice to get involved w/that shit but still have to deal w/police raids and lockdowns.

Maybe they should change the name to Wastefield HS.

wow good one.
WHS>CHS>OHS>HHS>SLHS

i think the fact that everyone keeps saying the reason all these kids are fucked up is because they're rich is just wrong. i definitely wasnt rich when i went there. yeah we had/have really rich kids, but we also have kids from london towne, the trailer park off 50, how about everywhere around the school that isnt va run. every place has these problems. if it was just the rich kids then wouldn't dc be the safest school system. yeah obviously not. all the other schools in this area have the same problems, well except for the mass murderers, but they just havent been reported on because there is no public interest. drugs are everywhere, seriously. you just have to choose not to do them and thats easy to say now but hey, seriously who didn't do dumb shit in hs. i know i did.

what is your point? westfield and oakton definately have a bigger drug problem than south lakes. herndons is worse than SL too. i dont know anything about chantilly. at south lakes the only really visable drug is weed. the others exist no doubt but not on the same scale as at other schools.

oh yeah and everyone that gets kicked out of westfield either goes to mountain view or chantilly after. haha i know cause it happened to me.

First off, westfield kids do more shit in hs than other kids. Then you say, mass murderers haven't been reported from other schools because of lack of public interest. Where ever their is a mass murder it is reported and their is public interest.
I move that we label whs04 statement as stupid.

wrong moron. i was saying that the drug use at other schools isnt being reported because of lack in public interest in those schools. i move that you put a gun to your head and pull the trigger.

Typical westfield response, and the way you structured that sentence it did appear you said mass murders had not been reported; I get what you mean though, so please do not come and shoot up my work place.

Vestfield is Bestfield

then why does westfield birth so many heroin addicts and murderers?

agreed

westfield seems to have SO many qualities of an inner city school, but its in the suburbs.

apparently gangs arent a problem there (thats the only reason why i dont say it has "ALL" the qualities)

not with a dog hit

i hope you were being sarcastic. westfield has none of the problems of an inner city school. dont hype yourself.

hey about the oakton kids that got busted for drugs yesterday where are you now little cougars... come out come out from where ever you are.

bunch of rich spoiled brats...lets see what the coaches do to these kids if they were "athletes"

oakton parents get over yoruselves

Sometimes athletes do stuff and have had NO significant repercussion including blatent vandalism. Athletes have gotten moved to other regular high schools for a while - sometimes even get transportation after drug busts. No sports missed. Drinking might get a suspension and/or a counseling. All can occur on school sponsored junkets.

bunch of little COUGARS are in TROUBLE for illegal activities. what are mommy and daddy going to do now. Will they have to miss a tee time at international or luncheon with the bimbo lady mom's? Oh no, they will get high priced lawyers to take care of it all and get all of the problems hidden away. This is south lakes for rich kids. way to go losers. Westfield you guys take too much heat but now OHS will be taken it away from you with thier illegal activities.

at least we arent mass murderrers
