So i went to the bathroom at my high school and about 30 seconds after i went in and shut the door, two other kids that i know came in and was doing a transaction (you know what i mean). I only knew one of the voices, but after i left and went to class i saw the one kids voice that i remember with the other kid that was with him. In the transaction they said that he was to come to the other kids locker to get more. I was thinking... should i tell and get something out of the administration (grade booster, cant get in trouble?) or just leave it be? Neither kid knew i was in the bathroom, and im sick of crap like this going on at my school.

"Get something out of administration"?
 
They wouldn't owe you anything, and for you to expect a quid pro quo on something this basic is immoral in and of itself.
 
Tell, of course. But tell only a member of administration that you trust, if there is one.

Its none of your business, they could of been talking about anything.

In the end its your word against theirs.

For all you know they were trading something that isnt related to what you were thinking.

You will end up making yourself a pariah, is it worth it ?

Ya, i would be a little greedy in that remark. But this is quite a lead, its not as if they gets leads ever hour.

"Do you got it" Ya, i got it" "$200 right" "Ive got more in my locker"
 
I dont think i would be a pariah because as far as i know that conversation is confidential and they never knew i was in the bathroom. In high school, whatelse would people be doing in the bathroom? I do know that people start fights in there as well as "burn" there newly acquired product.

No, surely the entire high school student body will idolize you, put you on a pedestal as law enforcement professional and cowboy vigilante of the halls!

I say tell but do it anonymously. If the school does their job correctly, the ought to take all claims , anonymous or not, seriously and investigate. If the school fails to find something, it would at least scare the dealers/buyers.
