Red Ribbon Week at Faras


Published/Last Modified on Thursday, November 6, 2008 1:51 PM MST


Faras Elementary School Students celebrated Red Ribbon Week October 27-31 2008 by participating in educational presentations, poster contests, assemblies and other Drug Awareness Activities. The Border Patrol sent agents with horses, Quad Runners (pictured with Mr. Romero’s 1st/2nd class) and trucks to help explain their jobs. The Pirtleville Fire Department brought their fire truck and dressed in their protective fire gear. The firemen explained how to stay safe and prevent fires. They went on to say what to do in case of a fire. Mr. Duarte, the County Health Educator for Project B.U.T.T. presented a film on anti-smoking and held a discussion with the students. The week ended with their monthly assembly and presented the winners of the Red Ribbon Week Poster with their prizes.
