💜💛 Learning Life Skills Through Too Good for Drugs! 💛💜
Our St. Marys High School sophomores have been actively participating in the Too Good for Drugs program with Mrs. Rinard during Mrs. Johnson’s Health classes!
Through interactive workbook activities, educational board games, and team challenges, students have been developing important life skills that will help them make positive choices both inside and outside the classroom.
🧠 Goal Setting – Learning how to set meaningful goals and take steps toward achieving them.
🎯 Decision Making – Understanding how everyday choices can impact their future.
❤️ Understanding Emotions – Recognizing emotions and learning healthy ways to manage them.
🤝 Communication & Teamwork – Working together, sharing ideas, problem-solving, and strengthening team-building skills.
One of the highlights has been watching students work together through board games and group activities that encourage communication, cooperation, and positive decision-making!
The Too Good for Drugs program is about more than substance abuse prevention. It is about building confidence, developing healthy relationships, and giving students the tools they need to make responsible decisions.
We are proud of our sophomores for their participation, teamwork, and willingness to learn skills that will benefit them well beyond high school!
💜💛 Building Strong Minds, Healthy Choices, and Brighter Futures
