The fifth graders at Remington Traditional graduated from the DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program on Tuesday during a ceremony in the school’s library.
The program, which is taught by Maryland Heights police officer Bob Heitert, gives students the skills they need to recognize and resist the pressures that may cause them to experiment with drugs or become involved in unhealthy activities.
Several district activities have been canceled this year due to the pandemic, but Heitert was determined to hold this event because it’s a culmination of a lot of things for the students.
The first vaccine clinic will be held from 4 to 8 p.m., Thursday, June 3 in the gymnasium at Pattonville High School, with a follow up clinic for the second dose on Thursday, June 24. Appointments are available by pre-registration only at the following link: http://bit.ly/PSDvaccines6-3-21.
