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.

    i agree with this i mean we are going to be in high school soon and there are going to be times when people are going to think that doing drugs are cool and they want you to do them with you but just say NO because drugs are bad for you and could kill you drugs are not cool even though some people might think they are and they think that are grown up and cool for doing it. well i say that you are cool for not doing them so if you ever get into a sitation that someone wants you to do drugs just say NO!!!!

    A good way is to JUST SAY NO!!!!!!!!!! When you get older there will be a lot of oppurtunities to do drugs but you should just say no and walk away. Also, you should always tell a parent or close adult. Evryone should be born knowing to say no to stupid stuff like that that just makes you sick and stupid. People who do drugs just have nothing better to do and they think it is cool. It is just called having no life. SO JUST SAY NO!

    Dear Students,
    this is rayna and i think that we should all be drug free! Being drug free isnt a bad thing it is something to be pround of. Drugs will make you do things that you wouldnt normally do. trust me that if you do drugs you will get caught and if you dont you will suffer of some kind of disease and will regret it one day. Dont Regret! Dont Do Drugs!
    Love,
    Rayna Torregno

    Dear students,

    Don't do drugs, drugs can screw up your life, they make you do things you dont wanna do. Drugs can hurt you and the people that love you. Drugs are illegal so its just better that you don't do them!!!

    All of these comments are GREAT! I think that drugs are a very ba infuence on all people in this world. Drugs are a very bad thing out in this world! I hope that drugs will eventually stop. Just say no to drugs. Because they are very bad for you. Teenagers these days are doing alot of peer pressuring. Its has gotten worse over these years and i think it needs to stop some day! JUST SAY NO!

    Dear Students,
    Drugs are really bad for you. They never help you. If you would look back at all the people who did drugs they always got addicted and they never helped them either. There are over a billion people who got addicted to drugs and died from it. They are still counting to this day. Every day people are dying from drugs every hour, everyday.

    Dear fellow classmates,
    Drugs are very bad for you and your life. When you choose to do drugs your life falls apart and so does your family/friends. Many people every year die from drugs and unforcnetly alot of them are kids. You may say "oh, ill try it once" but that once can turn into two times and 3 times. Kids our age should stand up for not doing drugs.
    sencerly your friend,
    Zoe!Smile<3

    Dear Ms.Ball ,


    To stay drug free all you have to to is say no. If someone offer you drugs all you have to do is say no and if they ask you again ,just say no again. You ould die the frist time you use some drugs. Putting drugs and achol into yuour body at such a young age could stop or damagge your growth.That's why you shoudn't do drugs ever or drik untill yuor 21.

    To make your life easier do the right thing.
    Making your life easier is what all people want
    Easy is hard to find ,but hard is easy to find.
    You know what your doing ,but who has control you or someone else.
    you decide on your life easy or hard.

    I say no to drugs because they could hurt your body by killing your brain cells and giving you cancer and making you wacko if you know what im saying. Drugs like alcohol and tobacco are not illegal but they could still hurt you and give you lots of medical problems.

    Dear Mrs. Ball,

    I pledge to live drug free because all drugs do is mess up your life. Many athletes take drugs to make them do a certain thing faster. Your body grows at a specific rate and at a specific speed. When you start taking drugs your body funtions at a rate or speed it is not born to do. Lots of people growing up are extremly good kids and when they got older they started hanging out with the wrong people. All those bad people talked them into doing the wrong thing and all the drugs ended up taking the lives of many wonderful peoples lives. The more you stay away from drugs the better your life will end.
    Would you ratther die knowing you lived a healthy and clean life?
    Or
    Would you rather die because you were a drug atic and alcholic?
    YOU CHOOSE HOW YOU WANT TO LIVE

    STAYING DRUG FREE MEANS YOU OVERCOMED MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS BY STAYING.......
    DRUG FREE

    SINCERLY,
    Wac-o Jac-o (Jaclyn)

    Dear People, 11-4-09
    i would say that you should not do drugs because they are illegal and most importanly they are harmful and can make you whacko. Of course you are thinking potatoe chips and candy are bad for you too, but that damage is reversible. Damage from drugs is not reversible its permanet.

    drugs are very tempting towards the eyes of the youth. Drugs are very bad like ritalin, weed,cocaine,and alchohol.these drugs are very damaging and very adictive. so remember kids just say NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
