Clairbourn Student Council Leads With Heart

Jeanette Zamora
Middle School Student Council planned a special week for the community to honor Red Ribbon Week. Clairbourn students came together and filled the campus with lots of red to raise the awareness of drug abuse prevention. Along with Student Council adviser, Ms. Vinnedge, students wrote, recorded and produced daily skits to teach students the importance of making good choices!

Red Ribbon Week is an alcohol, tobacco, and other drug and violence prevention awareness campaign observed annually in October in the United States.
It began in 1985 and is the nation's largest and longest running drug awareness and prevention program. It has helped millions of children across the globe!

Student Council wrote, recorded and produced skits for the week to show the community about making good choices.

Student Council discussed what drugs are and how to stay safe and healthy.
Students from across the grades learned drugs are chemical substances which can cause a change in the body either in a helpful way or a negative way. Cougars also learned the difference between safe drugs at home, such as medication, and illegal drugs that can harm the body and mind.

Council members also talked about how good it feels when a good choice is made. Whether it is saying no to drug abuse, making a good nutrition choice at Halloween, or saying no to unhealthy suggestions from strangers online, we know our Cougars will try their best to do what’s right!

Thank you Student Council for your leadership, showing us how to be brave, use our voices, and make good choices! Clairbourn students are scholars and leaders with HEART!
