District Celebrates Red Ribbon Week
The Red Ribbon Campaign was started in response to the tragic 1985 murder of Federal Drug Administration Agent Enrique Camarena while he was investigating Mexican drug traffickers. At the time of his murder, people everywhere began wearing red ribbons to take a public stand against the illegal use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs. This was the beginning of Red Ribbon Week being celebrated in schools every October!
CCR3 celebrated Red Ribbon Week in many ways: dress up days at Ellis and CCMS, students signed pledges to BE DRUG FREE, door decorating contests and red ribbons and bracelets. Special thanks to everyone involved in helping our district and community to RESPECT YOURSELF AND BE DRUG FREE!
