Drug Free
Hi, my name is Daisy Martinez and I am here to tell you to not
use drugs in your life. Say no to drugs.
Number one: No smoking. Do you think that drugs make you look
cool? Well they don’t. People think that drugs make you look
cool. Do not take drugs because it is bad for your brain and
your lungs.
Number two: Tobacco. Never use tobacco because you can’t do any
sports or do what you want to do. Like I said, do not use
tobacco.
Finally, number three: Be drug free. Always be drug free because
now you can follow your dreams, do what you want to do, be
healthy and stay healthy
So parents please stop smoking! If you don’t your kids will
start doing it when they get older.
Please! Stop using drugs. Don’t use drugs because you can’t do
what you want to do.
Thank you.

Say No To Drugs
This is Red Ribbon Week. Please wear red because it says that
you don’t do drugs.
Every day of red ribbon week we’d like you to wear red because
it reminds us of Kiki Camarena. He was a policeman who died
trying to get rid of drugs.
A red ribbon shows that you do not use drugs. Wear red to remind
us to make good choices.
You don’t have to choose to use drugs. Stay in school, play
sports or go dancing! Red ribbon reminds the kids to not use
drugs.
Some people do drugs in front of little kids and that’s not
good. Little kids might ask for some and they don’t know what it
is. They could die.
Wear red like me to show that you’re drug free!
