RED RIBBON WEEK:
 Next week, we will celebrate Red Ribbon Week. This is a special campaign designed to encourage participation in drug prevention education and activities. This year’s theme is “Be Kind to You Mind. Live Drug Free!”. The theme is a call to action to speak out in support of healthy choices. It also serves as a reminder that we are all empowered with shaping the communities around us through positivity, bravery and strength. You are encouraged to show your support by wearing red on Monday and participating in the theme days throughout the rest of the week.
