SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions) |
The purpose of Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) is to encourage young people to adopt a substance free life style. SADD educates students on the importance of not drinking, using drugs and maintaining traffic safety. When a student joins SADD, both the student and their parent or guardian must sign a contract. By signing the contract both parties agree that they will do what is needed to ensure the safety of others involved in alcohol related incidents.
SADD's activities include "Red Ribbon Week", which is the week before Homecoming. During this week, students are reminded about the dangers of drinking and driving. The main event of the week is "mime day". On this day, the members of SADD are to be dressed in black and are supposed to have been killed in an alcohol related accident. The members are not allowed to talk with anyone and are supposed to experience, and help those around them experience, how life would be without them. SADD's highlight of the year is the SADD assembly during prom week. The entire school is gathered in the auditorium and is educated about the effects of drinking and drug use.
SADD is a very important organization at Trinity and helps to ensure the safety of our students and others. |
