Red Ribbon Week!

Today begins Red Ribbon Week. As usual, Mrs. Dalendandro has done a wonderful job planning this year's week. Red Ribbon Week is dedicated to celebrating the life of Enrique Camarena, who was a DEA agent who died in the fight against drugs. Over the years, Special Agent Camarena's tragic death has been turned into a week long celebration of making positive choices and leading healthy. drug-free lifestyles. The last week of October became formalized as Red Ribbon Week in 1988 by a proclamation of the U.S. Congress.

Activities are planned for each day this week that will have our students activiely engaged. Be sure to ask your children about this important topic. Remember to wear red tomorrow!

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
