Too Good For Drugs Program
During our 6th session of T.G.F.D., Deputy Seward shared a power point presentation about tobacco. Students learned different ways people use tobacco and how each of those uses negatively affects the human body. Students received a fact sheet about tobacco that should be shared and discussed with a parent.
Thank You to Valentine Volunteers
A special thanks to Mrs. Daly, Mrs. Arlt, and Mrs. Potter for planning and running a great party. Also, thank you to Mrs. Veselak and Mrs. Morrison for providing paper goods, treats, and drinks for us to enjoy. Finally, thanks to Mrs. Flynn for contacting and organizing the volunteers for me. Our hearts were all a-flutter from all the fun!
