Red Ribbon Week @ GPISD




Red Ribbon Fact
The older a student grows, the less likely, “Just say no” will be effective on its own. We’ve got to get to know our students so we can help them find their own reason for saying no. The reality we want all students to understand is that by saying no to drugs, they’re actually saying yes – yes to themselves, yes to what they want to accomplish, and yes to who they want to become.

Red Ribbon Fact
What are the greatest risk factors in determining how susceptible your child is to substance abuse? Students who skip school, are unsuccessful in school, have parents who use drugs, lack parental supervision, and have friends who engage in alcohol and drug use are all far more likely to begin abusing drugs themselves. On the flip side, the greatest protective factors against your child abusing drugs are: having a strong family bond, parental supervision and monitoring, being active in school, community, or religious organizations, and hearing the direct expression of their parent’s feelings about the use of drug and alcohol.   

GP Buddies Up Against Drugs
GPHS staff and students, as well as GPHS Early College High School, buddied up with a partner to beat drugs. Red carpet was provided for all of our buddies that led to a table full of prizes for participating. The idea of walking on the Red Carpet enticed our administrators to buddy up as well.  #eachonesaveone
