DARE Graduation - Harris Elementary School

Jayde's DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) Graduation was today, Wednesday, April 9, 2008. For the second day in a row the Grandparents attended an event at Harris Elementary School.

Cpl. Steve McCarley is the instructor for DARE. He spoke briefly regarding what DARE is and what it teaches the kids. Following that, he distributed Diploma's and DARE t-shirts to each one of the 5th graders.

Each student is required to write an essay at the end of the semester telling what they learned in DARE. Four students were awarded a medal for having written an out-standing essay. Jayde was one of the four who won a medal.

Grammy and Grandpa enjoyed our visit to Harris this morning. We are so proud of you Jayde! Good job in your DARE classes
