Happy Red Ribbon Week Decatur! Kudos to those of you shading out drugs by wearing your sunglasses. By staying drug-free, you’re showing yourself and the world how much you value your health, community, and dreams. Keep adding those bright pieces to your puzzle – we believe in you! Tomorrow’s dress up day is Red Ribbon Wednesday. Wear red to show your support for making healthy choices and saying no to drugs.
