The Prairie High School Drug Free Group has sponsored
well-attended parties after our first two home football games. Approximately
80 students showed up each week to partake in the food and fun. The students
and chaperones enjoyed nights of basketball, card games, movies, and, most
of all, socializing over a selection of pizza/Subway sandwiches and pop.
Officers Cochran and Rambo joined in the fun and were a welcomed presence
among the students. The Drug Free Group is more than 30 members strong
this year and is looking forward to many fun and exciting activities.
Due to lack of state funds and grants, however, our budget has been greatly
reduced. We would love to make every home football game and possibly
a few basketball games drug free nights, but we need some help doing so.
If anybody would be interested in sponsoring an after-game party by providing
(or donating towards) the food and drinks, please contact one of the advisors,
Krystal Ellis (ellis@sd242.k12.id.us)
or Renee Eckert (eckert@sd242.k12.id.us)
at the junior/senior high school (962-3901). Click on the photo for
