The week of October 27th-October 31st, students across campus came together to celebrate Red Ribbon Week, a national campaign that promotes living a drug-free and healthy lifestyle. Each day featured a fun dress-up theme that encouraged school spirit while spreading an important message: to make positive choices and stay away from harmful substances. 

Last Monday, students started the week off cozy by wearing their pajamas, symbolizing “putting drugs to rest.” Tuesday brought laughter and creativity with “Rhyme Without Reason” Day, where friends paired up in mismatched rhyming outfits like “cat and bat” or “chef and ref.” Wednesday was all about unity as students dressed alike for Twin Day, showing that supporting each other makes it easier to say no to drugs. 

As the week continued, Thursday’s Jersey Day gave everyone a chance to represent their favorite teams, reminding students to “team up against drugs.” Finally, on Friday, students showed their spirit by wearing costumes or white, celebrating Halloween safely while standing for a bright, drug-free future. 

Overall, Red Ribbon Week served as a reminder that making smart choices can lead to a healthier, happier life. Through each theme and activity, students not only had fun but also learned the importance of staying drug-free and supporting one another in building a positive community.
