Throughout the program, students engaged in learning about the dangers of drug abuse and ways to resist peer pressure, culminating in writing essays that summarized their key takeaways and personal reflections. From each class, one outstanding essay was selected as a winner, highlighting the students’ understanding and commitment to making healthy choices. Congratulations to Renyeliz Florentino, Malachi Tompson, Michiko Fumoto and Zoe Moody who were this year's essay winners.The school extended heartfelt thanks to all the fifth-grade teachers for their ongoing support and dedication in guiding the students through the program. A special recognition was given to Officer Adam Geyer, the D.A.R.E. instructor, whose efforts and leadership were instrumental in delivering this important education.
