Case Study: Legacy Christian Academy achieves a drug-free culture with Psychemedics hair testing

Legacy Christian Academy keeps positive rates at 2% or below with Psychemedics

Legacy Christian Academy, a faith-based school, faced the challenge of an evolving drug culture and the limitations of its zero-tolerance, urine-based testing policy, which was not aligned with its redemptive mission. To build a more effective deterrent and support students, the school partnered with Psychemedics Corporation to implement its hair analysis drug testing service.

Psychemedics' solution provided a 90-day detection window through hair testing, eliminating evasion tactics and serving as a powerful deterrent. The results were highly positive, with positive test rates remaining at or below 2% since the program's inception in 2018. Psychemedics' technology was fundamental to creating Legacy's successful redemptive model, which is now cited as a program that can save students from a potential life of addiction.
