During RED RIBBON WEEK in October, the Vacaville AWARE Coalition, Vacaville Unified School District, and private schools came together to participate in the “Team Up Against Drugs” campaign. Schools took a stand against drugs and alcohol by teaming up and wearing sports gear to school. The level of participation was outstanding! Over 3,000 youth participated this year. 🎉
This week, our Team Up Against Drugs winners were presented with trophies and certificates of participation at their schools. Their commitment to educating and supporting our students in the fight against substance abuse is commendable. By coming together as a team, they have shown that we can make a significant impact on our community. Your efforts not only raise awareness but also inspire our students to make healthier choices. 😀
School winners were Alamo Elementary School, Notre Dame School, Willis Jepson Middle School, and Vacaville High School. Additionally, we want to recognize the teachers with the highest participation at each school.

These dedicated educators have inspired their students to engage in this important initiative. Thank you all for your commitment and for encouraging our students to make healthy choices! Let’s continue to work together to promote a drug-free environment!
