THE THIRD AND FOURTH GRADES WILL RECEIVE FIVE LESSONS.
THE 5TH GRADE DARE PROGRAM IS ORGANIZED INTO SEVENTEEN 45 TO 60 MINUTE LESSONS TAUGHT BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER WITH ACTIVITIES INTEGRATED INTO OTHER INSTRUCTION BY THE CLASSROOM TEACHER.
The DARE officer looks forward to working with parents. If you have any questions, or concerns, feel free to call Officer Franco or Officer Cannizzo at 973-887-0432, or email them at communityservices@EHPOLICE-dot-COM
THE DARE PROGRAM OFFERS PREVENTIVE STRATEGIES TO ENHANCE STUDENTS TO RECOGNIZE AND RESIST DIRECT AND SUBTLE PRESSURES THAT MAY INFLUENCE THEM TO EXPERIMENT WITH ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, MARIJUANA, INHALANTS, OR OTHER DRUGS.
