Red Ribbon Week is here at Orange Beach Elementary School! Red Ribbon week is a celebration of living a healthy and drug-free lifestyle. We have many activities scheduled for next week to celebrate.
On Monday, we will celebrate “Career Leaders” by dressing up as your favorite career person. On Tuesday, we will “March against Drugs” with a parade down Wilson Avenue at 10 a.m. Everyone should wear red.
On Wednesday, the theme is “I’m a JEAN-ius/I’m Drug Free.” Everyone wear jeans with a uniform top. On Thursday, “We’re Teaming Up Against Drugs.” Everyone wear their favorite team shirts.
We will also have an assembly on Thursday to meet the Baldwin County Sherriff’s K-9 unit, which will kick off the Red Ribbon Fundraiser, “Pennies for Puppies.” “Pennies for Puppies” will raise money for the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office to purchase a new canine for drug prevention.
On Friday, we celebrate “Teddy Bear Hugs Not Drugs” by bringing a Teddy Bear and dressing in pajamas.
