A Florida vice principal who wanted to try marijuana for the first time on her 50th birthday found herself in a hospital after overdosing on cannabis - and later in jail.

Donna Lynch Haff overdosed Monday on cookies made with cannabis oil after her 19-year-old daughter Allison brought the 'special' treats home, Pasco County Sheriff's spokesman Kevin Doll said.

Allison Haff got the cookies from a co-worker and brought them home for her mother, who works as the assistant principal of Anclote High School in Holiday, Florida.

Haff's 19 year old daughter Allison (pictured) got the cannabis cookie for her mom. Both were arrested on felony possession charges on Monday

On Sunday, she was rushed to St. Joseph Hospital North in Tampa after eating too much of the drug-laced edible.

The following day both were taken into custody but were released from jail the some day.

They were charged with felony possession of a controlled substance.

Haff did not return to her job on Tuesday and was placed on administrative leave while the matter was investigated.

'We can’t have our administrators in a position where they’re facing felony charges for using drugs,' Pasco County School District Spokeswoman Linda Cobbe told WFLA.

Students were floored to learn about the administrator's arrest and said it was completely out of character for her.

'Oh yeah, for sure I was shocked cause I wasn’t thinking it wasn’t her doing it, especially not her,' Braxton Johnson told WFLA.

Braxton said students have already created memes of the assistant principal and that the day had been 'crazy'.

'She was a good principal. She always wanted you to do the right things,' he said.

It's unclear if the women have retained attorneys.
