red ribbon week

Substance prevention campaign

Red Ribbon Week is an annual American drug prevention campaign observed in late October, primarily in schools.

Students and staff wear red ribbons and participate in anti-drug activities and pledges.

The campaign began in 1988 to honor DEA agent Enrique Camarena, who was murdered by drug traffickers.

The school decorated hallways for Red Ribbon Week.
