How do I tell my parents I am hooked on bhang

A student's dilemma over bhang addiction

I am a 16-year-old high school student and I am hooked on bhang. I go to a Christian, all boys boarding school yet weed is readily available there. I do not know how to tell my parents about this and when I ask them to transfer me from the school they will hear nothing of it. I feel like such a disappointment to them but I need help. How do I talk to my parents about this?

It is very commendable of you to speak out and admit you need help. This is a bold step and one that will help you in this journey of working towards stopping taking the weed. Now, for you to be able to do that, your parents will come in handy.
