TES celebrates Red Ribbon Week
November 16, 2011
Tonganoxie Elementary School celebrated Red Ribbon Week Oct. 25-28 with themes each day.
Students wore camouflaged clothing Oct. 25 for Mission Accomplished — Drug-free Life Day and dressed like twins for Friends Don’t Let Friends Do Drugs Day on Oct. 26. Students wore hats for Keep Your Head in the Game Day on Oct. 27.
That theme day also coincided with the school’s fall service project. Students could donate money that went to the Foundation for Children with Cancer.
And on Oct. 28, students wore red for Red Ribbon Day.
Red Ribbon Week is dedicated to educating youths about the dangers of drug and alcohol use and abuse.

Point of View
What’s the best way to spend a snow day?
Shovel your driveway and paths, check neighbors’ driveways and then grab all your closest little ones and find the biggest sledding hill. Snowmen also are a must. Snow days are a great time to catch up on missed shows and much-needed rest. I love snowdays, they haven’t changed one bit even as an adult, although I am sure not all working adults can say that, but I am happy I can. I was excited to see the snowmen and other snow sculptures throughout the Lawrence and Kansas City metro areas.
