Red Ribbon Week

Have any of you ever done any Red Ribbon Week presentations?  I'm at a large high school in Texas, and the previous nurse would make presentations about different types of drugs during the announcements every day during Red Ribbon Week.  What she used was an interview-style presentation with the Student Council President, and I am looking for something that better fits my style.  Does anyone have any resources they could throw my way?

Oh Lort. I'd forgot about Red Ribbon Week.

I would still leverage the StuCo and ask them what drugs/substances in particular they're worried about "for their friends."

The answer might surprise you. Then you can tailor whatever it is you do to their response.

I don't think I've thought about Red Ribbon Week since my own junior high years ?

I lucked out, and convinced the HOSA club to handle the announcements this week.  COVID has picked back up here, and I wasn't sure I'd be available to go to the office every day to make the announcement.
