RED RIBBON WEEK: MAKING HEALTHY CHOICES!
In celebration of Red Ribbon Week, our students have been learning about the importance of making healthy and safe choices. Over the past two weeks, during classroom lessons, students took time to reflect on what it means to take care of their bodies and their futures. As part of the celebration, each student tied a red ribbon to our school fence as a symbol of their personal pledge to stay healthy and make smart choices. This year’s theme is “Life is a Puzzle, Solve it Drug Free”
If you’re nearby, we invite you to drive by and check out our fence filled with red ribbons – it’s a powerful reminder of the positive choices our students are making! Let’s keep encouraging healthy choices at home and at school!
