As part of Red Ribbon Week, Tracy Starks, from the Arkansas Department of Health and Arch Ford co-op, presented information to high school students on the dangers of opioids and fentanyl . She also presented information on vaping and tobacco dangers to the students in grades 4 through 6. On Friday morning, high school students will participate in a roundtable discussion with various community members on the impacts of drugs and alcohol on their career roles, as well as families they serve. Friday afternoon, we will have the Jaws of Life demonstration for high school students as we continue our discussions about drinking and driving. Educating our students at Shirley goes beyond the classroom.

Shirley School District hosted a college fair on October 14th. Our high school students had the opportunity to attend and explore the many possibilities that await them after graduation! From discovering colleges and universities to learning about career opportunities and military service, students were introduced to the 3 E's: Employ, Enroll, and Enlist!
We are proud of our students for taking steps toward planning their futures and exploring the many paths to success. The goal is to ensure every student has a plan and the resources they need to thrive after high school!

National Red Ribbon Week kicks off this Friday, October 24, and continues through Friday, October 30. October is also Kindness month, so we are kicking off Friday with Peace Out (hippy/tie dye dress-up).
We have scheduled several drug and alcohol awareness activities for next week for grades 4-12. Also, we have a theme each day to which students can dress up.
At Shirley, we understand how important it is for our students to be aware of the effects of drugs and alcohol, so we want the week to be about more than dressing up. The national theme for Red Ribbon Week is "Be a Hero. Don't Do Drugs." Our high school student council chose the dress-up themes for each day. They are going to be great school leaders!
