Students at Chadron Primary School recognized and celebrated Red Ribbon Week October 23rd-27th.  This year's national Red Ribbon theme was "Be kind to your mind.  Live drug free." Each day the dress up themes focused on how we can take care of our minds, bodies, and each other. Students learned about ways to stay healthy (eating a balanced diet, staying hydrated, exercising) and ways to stay safe (wearing a seatbelt, wearing a helmet).  Students also learned about how to keep themselves safe and stay healthy with Halloween and Trick-or-Treating right around the corner (have a trusted adult check your candy before you eat it, make sure you can see out of and walk comfortably in your costume, etc...) At the culmination of our lessons, students pledged to do their best to make healthy and safe choices.
