S.M.S. Celebrates Red Ribbon Week

The entire student body and staff gathered today to “Blow Away Drugs”. Bubbles filled the air as students remembered the numerous victims of substance abuse.

Red Ribbon Week at SMS

Students began our celebration of Red Ribbon Week. Student Council created today’s theme: hand in hand, we take a stand against drugs. Students were invited to wear gloves to commemorate the day.

All students and staff began the day with a Living Rosary. Students gathered in their multi – age groups to participate and 8th grade students led. We remembered those suffering from drug addictions and prayed for their families.

Check out the website for more information on Red Ribbon Week activities.
