Yesterday marked the final session in Susquehanna Valley High School's presentations at Donnelly and Brookside Elementary. Since January, the LEADers have visited both schools monthly and established relationships with three 5th grade classes at each school. These sessions allowed them to cover many different topics related to safe choices including drugs and alcohol, peer pressure, being a good friend and using resistance skills. The LEADers and the kids both seemed sad to have to end their times together.
Yesterday also marked Vestal YES! LEADers fourth presentation session, this time at Vestal Hills Elementary. The LEADers have so far visited African Road, Clayton Avenue, Glenwood and Vestal Hills Elementary Schools and are hoping to get to Tioga Hills soon. Their presentations are focused on drugs and alcohol and using the "10 Ways to Make Safe Choices" to resist peer pressure.
Both presentations debuted the new YES! LEADS "Ask Me What I've Learned About Making Safe Choices Today" stickers that were a hit with both the LEADers and elementary students, with one LEADer on the record as saying, "I hope there are extras!"
