My Project

Red Ribbon Week is an important week in our school. I would like to be able to offer students red items and reminders that drugs are not the way to be successful. I would like to offer games with prizes using trivia and games of chance.

These items will remind students to care about each other and their well-being.

This has always been a fun week with our students, including dress-up days, but we want to amp up the excitement with these great giveaways and incentive to remain a drug-free campus!
