Our local Jackson County Youth Coalition (JCYC) student group is leading the charge all week long to keep our youth healthy, safe, and focused on their goals!

Red Ribbon Week is the nation’s largest campaign dedicated to promoting drug-free, healthy lifestyles. At RVHS, our students are taking the pledge—promising to respect themselves, make smart choices, and encourage their friends and family to stay drug-free. Every signed pledge is displayed proudly on the wall, and students who sign up are entered into a drawing to win 1 of 5 gift cards!

Students and staff dressed up in support of Red Ribbon week:
• Monday: ALL ABOUT RED– wore red to launch Red Ribbon Week and show our commitment!
• Tuesday: TEAM UP AGAINST DRUGS – wore favorite team jerseys and sports gear to show we are stronger together
• Wednesday: SPOOK AWAY DRUGS – dressed up in fun or spooky Halloween costumes to scare away bad choices

We are so proud of our students for taking a strong stand, making positive choices, and leading by example every single day.
