I am 16 and live in Sterling Heights, Michigan. I got caught today in school with 1-2 grams of weed. The principal told me that I can get 5-10 suspension, 1 year or maybe even get kick out and might have to go to court. I told them that I never smoke before in my life (the truth) and willing to take the drug test. Can someone tell what is really going to happen to me? And what should I say when I am in court?
