Activities for Red Ribbon Week, Oct. 23-31
This year's theme: "Your Future Is Key, So Stay Drug Free"

Unite the students in your classroom and throughout the school in a stand against drugs by celebrating Red Ribbon Week on October 23-31. 

Following the death of a DEA agent in 1985, the Red Ribbon Campaign was created with a mission to present a unified and visible commitment toward the creation of a nation that is drug free. This year's theme, "Your Future Is Key, So Stay Drug Free," is a reminder that our actions have consequences and living a drug free lifestyle can help us reach our full potential. 

Use this blog for five ways you and your students can celebrate Red Ribbon Week.
