I Dare You To Take D.A.R.E.

I DARE you to take D.A.R.E! 

Hi our names are Molly and Ava and we are here to tell you about a class that we just finished in our school Emerson Elementary. It’s called D.A.R.E. D.A.R.E means two things; Drug Abuse Resistance Education, and the decision making model that means: Define, Asses, Respond, and Evaluate. We feel the class has been very informational for us.

The D.A.R.E lesson was taught by Officer Acklin. We had a graduation on December 16th 2014. Officer Acklin, Judge Carol, and the police chief (Officer Acklin's boss) were there. The Mayor, Mr. Summers, was going to come, but he was sick, so Mr. Butler was there instead. All the 5th grade students wrote an essay about D.A.R.E. Four of us got the chance to read them during the graduation in front of all the parents.

Towards the end of the graduation we got little goodie bags with two  D.A.R.E pencils, one D.A.R.E tech deck (mini skateboard), two D.A.R.E erasers, one D.A.R.E sharpener, a pack of D.A.R.E stickers, one D.A.R.E wristband and a pair of D.A.R.E sunglasses.

We would like to thank Officer Acklin for teaching us D.A.R.E. we learned a lot during this class. We would also like to thank all the parents who came to our graduation. Thank you to Mrs. Fox, Mrs. Heckman-Spear, and Mrs.Kuzmickas too.
