When in doubt...they probably are. Ha, ha, ha, just kidding. Here's a page with some info on it. Read down towards the bottom of it. The more experience you have with students that are, you will begin to be able to recognize it undoubtedly.

Red eyes and being grumpy could also be a sign that your student is not getting enough sleep.

Red eyes and being grumpy sounds more like a lack of sleep at night...

Where I teach, students have been putting lighter fluid on the cuffs of their shirts. (usually they have a hole cut in the cuff that they put their thumbs through.) Then, the simply put their hands up to their faces and inhale. It is colorless and odorless. Also, if a student has a white towel around their necks, but aren't playing a sport or are in PE at the time, that could be a signal that they are selling.

They lose all drive and don't seem to care about anything. They often don't do their work and tend to cause trouble in class. If you suspect a student is on drugs, call the parents. A wonderful teacher in my son's high school called me to let me know what was going on with him. It was hard but so much appreciated and we got help for him. I will always be grateful to that teacher.

I would be careful in making assumptions... your student could just be not getting enough sleep or reacting badly to a new medication.

Red eyes and being grumpy does not constitute drug usage.
Look at Ted Kennedy, he exhibits those very qualities.....and he doesn't use drugs....just ask him. :)
One sign that someone uses drug is that they are a card carrying democrat......

One indicator would be if they are members of the Young Republicans.
