SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO : Pilot Drug Guide to Be Sent to Parents
- Share via
Capistrano Unified School District trustees have unanimously approved sending a pilot drug education guide to about 4,000 parents of seventh- and eighth-grade students.
The 20-page Parent Resource, Information, Drug Education guide, known as PRIDE, is designed to help parents detect the signs of substance abuse and offers facts on chemical dependency and how it is treated. It was developed by the district, the Sheriff’s Department, San Clemente Police Department, California Highway Patrol and Dentists Against Drugs.
Parents will receive the handbook, which cost about $1,000 to develop, during Red Ribbon Week in late October.
