Red Ribbon Week

It's that time of year again! Haha...I say it as if I'm some seasoned pro. HOWEVER, when I was in high school I was in a drug prevention group where we'd go to the elementary schools and teach all about tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana prevention SO in reality, I have had some experience with it.

This year was the first year though, where I was expected to come up with a banner design. Talk about pressure. With younger grades, they're more oblivious to things. With sixth graders, they know which banner is the best/worst...so I felt a little overwhelmed with the task of coming up with something sweet. Luckily, Google came to my rescue. I found some cute ideas, but this was the one I went with. The kids stuffed brown paper bags full of tissue paper and made cute little owls. I had a different one liner for the banner, but they came up with this one which I thought was way cuter, so "Owl not do drugs!" was what we went with. We wanted to put a fall twist on it, so we threw some jack-o-lanterns and leaves at the bottom as well.


There you have it, folks. Happy (almost) Red Ribbon Week!
