SUMMARY: The Newton Municipal School District kicked off Red Ribbon Week, established in 1988 to honor Enrique “Kiki” Camarena, a drug enforcement agent who lost his life fighting against illegal drugs. The initiative aims to educate communities and youth on drug prevention. Newton Elementary invited local law enforcement, the fire department, and the mayor to emphasize the significance of saying no to drugs. The presence of community leaders serves as an inspiration for students, demonstrating the strong support for a drug-free message and encouraging children to aspire to a healthy, drug-free lifestyle.
