RED RIBBON WEEK!

Jacobson Elementary will be celebrating Red Ribbon Week next week – October 24-28!

Red Ribbon Week is celebrated as a reminder to stay Drug Free. Students are invited to dress up to celebrate. All of the days follow a “Drug Free” theme. Students have also decorated paper bags that will be used to bag groceries at the local grocery stores. Other events to celebrate Red Ribbon Week will take place next week as well. 5th and 6th grade students are invited to enter a poem into the poetry contest. All poems are due next Tuesday, October 25. There will be an assembly for 4th-6th grade on Thursday, October 27 at 2:45 in the gym, with two college athletes speaking about their choice to stay drug free, and how it has helped them get to where they are today.

If you have any questions regarding Red Ribbon Week please feel free to call or email me! Have a great weekend, everyone! :)
