Red Ribbon week is this month, but the idea of finding your natural high in life should be a focus all year, every year.  At first wearing a red ribbon was a way to honor a Kiki Camerena who lost his life in the line of duty fighting drug related crime.  Teachers and parents realize that teens face many challenging situations and that you need to be ready to handle them and comfortable asking for help when you need it.  Please take some time to browse at one or more of the following web site to learn about how you can stay drug free.  After you have learned something new return to this blog and post a freindly letter to your peers encouraging them to be drug free, how to refuse drugs and why they should be drug free.  Your letter could include a poem or song to make your point, but the letter should be in letter format, with a date, greeting, message (writtten in complete words and complete sentences) a closing and your name.

    Dear Mrs.Ball,

    There are alot of pills and drugs in the world.Before you do it.....think twice.There are pills for anything you can think of.But some of the pills can hurt you or worse...kill you.So a good decision is to think before you take a drug that you don't know what it is.Drugs are very agdicting.Don't take them anymore if you think you are getting better.It can kill you.So that is why you never take drugs without knowing what it is, or if you know what it is, and you think it is bad, then don't take it....

    Signcerily,
    Caitlin Welch

    Dear Classmates,

    Red ribbon week is awesome. Staying drug free should be very important to allo fo us. Doing drugs will change and maybe even ruin your life.Doing drugs is very bad for your health. Some people us drugs to comfort them after something bad has happend and some people take drugs because they think it is cool. If you think that takeing drugs is cool then you are not cool. Each time someone takes drugs it puts their life on the line. Taking drugs are very bad. So you should never take drugs.

    red ribbon week is about learning what drugs do to you if you use them in life. it tells us not to do drugs because they hurt your body.

    Dear my fellow classmates,

    The problem i'm bring up is drug. Many young kid these days are resorting to drugs,but the "RED RIBBION WEEK PROGRAM " is to imform you about what can happen or what they can do to you. So my fellow classmates don't resort to drug, if you have a problem go talk to a teacher,a parent ,or even a neighbor. Just don't resort to drugs.

    Dear myy classmates,
    Everyone I know that was on drugs. It didn't turn out good. Like they didn't know what happened. They well it just wasn't good. They worried everyone. It was so scary. So I say drugs are one of the worse things ever created or found on the whole face of the Earth. So be DRUG FREE and be proud about it.

    Dear Classmates,

    There are a lot of drugs and the sad part is that people actually take them. There are pills too. They are just wrong. You should'nt take drugs or pills or anything! They are illegal and you could go to jail for them too! Two questions for you...Jail or not and Dead or Alive!!!! Which one do you choose and you are the one to make the decision.

    Sincerely,
    Raven DiMaggio

    dear class,
    if you do drugs than you woln't have a normal life. you would have to live with a tube in your neck, or you could be in a weel chair. what ever happens it would be very bad because you did drugs. drugs should olny be used for medical reasons. if you do drugs you could die. i pledg to never ever do drugs. i hope that the rest of the class dose the same. ;)

    Drugs are suppose to make you feel better , but they don't they can kill you. Kids every year from drug overdoses. My mom was a drug addict and she abandoned my when i was six years old. She choosedrugs over her child. Drugs does that to people. Do you want that to happen to you? If you do your crazy. Drug make you do stupid things. Drug suck. Crack is wack. Dont do drugs.


    Sincerly, Caleb T. Johnson
