GENEVA - - A Geneva High School student learned a valuable lesson Tuesday: Always wear your own pants.

The student suspect allegedly possessed and intended to sell 700 mg of the prescription drug Seroquel, Geneva Police reports show.

Teacher Eileen Dragon received a note about the drugs, including the suspect's intent to sell the tablets at school, police say.

The suspect emptied his pockets and attempted to hide the drugs from officers. When the suspect's pockets were emptied finally, officers found six individually wrapped tablets of Seroquel. The pills expired in 2002, police reports show.

Seroquel (quetiapine) is a prescription anti-psychotic drug used to control the symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The pill is available in 25 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg tablets, according to the drug maker AstraZeneca's Web site (www.seroquel.com).

The suspect denied he was trying to sell the pills and told the officers he was wearing his father's pants, police say.

The student was suspended from school and was cited into Juvenile Court on misdemeanor possession of a dangerous drug, reports show.

"Now I can go home, the way I planned to," the student said as he was removed from school property, police reports show.

"We have zero tolerance for drugs. Anyone who has them on campus is certainly breaking the rules," Superintendent Ron Donatone said.

Donatone said he isn't sure whether abuse of prescription medications is becoming more popular with students, but he said the district has a clear policy on the presence of prescription drugs on school property.

"The parent must bring the prescription into the building with a note and the doctor's orders for the medication. Then, all medication is held and overseen by the school nurse," he said.
