Our Shepton PALs group has done a super job with this year's Red Ribbon Week!

Red Ribbon Week will conclude tomorrow, Friday, October 25 with a school-wide assembly featuring inspirational speaker Rashad Cohen, as well as words of wisdom in Spanish from Shepton alum David Huerta.

Has your student signed the Red Ribbon Week Pledge? This week, students are encouraged to sign the Red Ribbon Week pledge during their lunch periods.  All Shepton Wolves will be able to get more information about living a drug-free lifestyle, including resources on quitting nicotine and alcohol.

Thank you, Shepton PALs, for coordinating the fun dress-up days and helping our students learn about being drug-free!
