St. Mary’s Elementary celebrated Red Ribbon Week on October 26–30, 2026, with a week full of fun activities and opportunities for students to learn about making healthy choices. This year’s theme, “Make a Difference. Be a Hero. Stay Drug-Free,” reminded students that everyone can make a positive difference by choosing to live drug-free.
These activities were part of the week:
- All students and staff were invited to wear red on Monday to kick-off the week.
- Elementary classes participated in a poster contest with posters encouraging drug-free choices
- Third, fourth, and fith graders welcomed Drug Task Force Commander Mitch Mullenbach and Police Chief Dave Borchert to health class to learn about staying drug-free and making healthy choices.
- “Name That Tune” was played at the end of each school day with classes competing to see who could guess the song.
- The students had a mixed up lunch where they made special placements and were able to sit by a new friend.
We are so proud of our students for making drug-free choices!
