Drug and Alcohol Prevention
Substance abuse prevention is important to help develop the knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to make good choices. The use of drugs and alcohol during childhood and adolescence has more potential to disrupt brain function in areas critical to motivation, memory, learning, judgment, and behavior control, because the brain is still developing. We want to equip parents with resources and encourage our students to make wise choices concerning their wellbeing and help them reach their full potential.
