Red Ribbon Week

October 24-28

Red Ribbon Week is a national event that helps unite students against negative behaviors and helps promote making positive choices.  At East Side, we encourage students to be drug-free, stand up against bullying, and to make positive choices. This PTA sponsored event encourages students to be involved in each day’s theme.

Red Ribbon Week is a national event that promotes making positive choices and unites students against negative behaviors.  East Side celebrates Red Ribbon Week on Oct. 24-28 by encouraging all students to participate in the following activities. 

 

Monday 10/24 – Plant a Seed of Kindness.  Each class will participate in planting their very own seed of kindness to keep in the classroom and watch it grow! 

 

Tuesday 10/25 – Spread Kindness with a thoughtful message to a classmate, your teacher, or someone at home. Supplies will be provided at school. 

 

Wednesday 10/26 – Shine Your Kindness by wearing your brightest colors to school. 

 

Thursday 10/27 – Connecting Links of Kindness. Each student will write a kindness idea on a paper link (paper provided in each classroom). Individual links will be joined together to form a chain of kindness. 

 

Friday 10/28 – Pajama Pants Challenge! Students are invited to wear pajama pants to school and bring $1 to help homeless youth in our community. Donations will support the Center for Children and Young Adults (www.ccyakids.org)
