The paramedics are not overkill at all. No matter what, yes you've been TOLD it contains pot, or you suspect it....if you're wrong and it is something else you want paramedics on hand.
If you knew 100% it was pot? Well..while you truly do not need them there, its not unreasonable to do so to keep parents who are worried a little less terrified. Yeah if they're needed elsewhere they should go-but that's only if you could be 100% sure. And they just couldn't be.
I think its also important to have medical documentation in case there is a DFS or legal case that may come from this.
Thats a bit much calling in paramedics though. School nurse would have been plenty sufficient. Im curious what the paramedics even did during this whole time, what did they do to treat the kids?
From what I see in the story, school officials had no way to be sure what the problem actually was until the paramedics were called in. Even if they could connect it to the gumdrops, they would not have the expertise to determine exactly what it was (and children respond differently from adults to many drugs).
Are you kidding me? I am pro-legalization (for rec use) but if my 9 year old was drugged with THC I would expect/demand they be monitored by medical personnel...and I am not talking the school nurse.

Anyone see the difference between a 9 year old child accidently taking a mind altering substance and a grown person choosing to ingest it knowing the effects? The kids reported not being able to see and dizziness...they must have been scared. I would have been.
I have CBD gummies (no THC) and they are disgusting.
I don't think paramedics were overkill. It was better to be 100% safe, especially since they could have also contained something much worse
