Important Information

Red Ribbon Week

Dear Families,

The Red Ribbon Week campaign is a week in which schools across the country take a unified stand to commit to a drug free lifestyle. At Memorial School we like to focus on making smart choices and encouraging healthy habits. To aid in this we are offering a week of healthy social emotional C.A.R.E.S. challenges with raffled prizes the week of 10/26-10/30. Be on the lookout for a packet explaining these challenges.

This year’s campaign motto is, “Make a Difference, Be a Hero, Stay Drug Free.” Students will spend time during morning meetings thinking about who their heroes are, discussing what makes a hero, as well as what super powers they themselves have or want to have. Students may have homework related to their superheroes and that homework will become part of a door decoration for their classrooms. The best door will win a pizza party donated through SoRock Coalition. SoRock will also be supplying all of our students with red wristbands. Red Ribbon Week comes with Dress Up days that are as follows:
