St. James Elementary Students Pledge To Stay Drug-Free

Pledging to scare away drugs

St. James Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District created scarecrows as part of Red Ribbon Week and signed pledges to stay drug-free. As part of Red Ribbon Week and its Halloween celebrations, each class at St. James Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District designed their own scarecrows. 

Each class stuffed and decorated their scarecrows, which all tied into different grade-level themes. Students and staff each completed a pledge to make healthy choices and scare away drugs. After signing the pledge and pinning it to their class scarecrow, the life-sized creations were staked into the ground in front of the building and will remain through the Halloween season.
