The specific objectives of the study were to determine the relationship between drug abuse and the discipline of girls, identify the common drugs abused by girls and the effects of drugs on students. The methods used for data collection were questionnaires to the students and interviews with the teachers. The findings revealed that students who abused drugs had indiscipline cases and were therefore likely to drop out of school. It was revealed that the common drugs girls abused were alcohol, marijuana and cocaine. The study that drugs mostly affected the schooling of students since they did not concentrate in class. The study recommended that the ministry of the education and school authorities should provide preventive measures by checking what enters in school and also discourage students from taking drugs and also counsel those that are already taking drugs. The community and parents are important in a child’s life. They should therefore be sensitized and encouraged to participate in all programs that aim to solve the problem of drugs.
