Central Students Vote


Largest Mock Presidential Election Ever for K-6 Students!
At least 4 million elementary students from all 50 states are pre-registered to vote on Monday, November 3—just 24 hours before the actual election. Will their choice be the same as their parents the next day?
The results will be refreshed online every 10 minutes and listed by state as these students cast their votes from coast to coast—from Maine to Hawaii, from Florida to Alaska. Polls open at 8:00 AM and close at 3:30 on Nov 3.
The election is accessible only to K-6 elementary schools that have pre-registered, but the public may see the results in 50 states tally up by going to www.studiesweeklyvote.com.
The election is being sponsored by American Legacy Publishing, the producer of Studies Weekly® publications. It is an effort to provide their student subscribers with a rich civics experience that mirrors the real election as closely as possible.

Excellent effort!!!


Red Ribbon Week


Red Ribbon Week is an alcohol, tobacco and other drug awareness campaign observed annually.


In 1985, Calexico, California donned red ribbons to honor slain Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena. The red ribbon became their symbol for prevention in order to reduce the demand of illegal drugs. Congressman Duncan Hunter and teacher David Dhillon launched "Camarena Clubs" in California high schools and in 1985 club members presented a proclamation to Nancy Reagan. The following year, parent teacher organizations in California, Illinois and Virginia wore red ribbons during late October. In 1988, the first National Red Ribbon Week was proclaimed by the U.S. Congress and chaired by Nancy Reagan.


Red Ribbon week will be scheduled as follows (including RVT, Central, and Southside):
· Monday, Oct 20th “Our world is brighter without drugs!” – wear bright colors
· Tuesday, Oct 21st “Follow your dreams not drugs!” – wear pajamas and slippers
· Wednesday, Oct 22nd “Parents set the example, be drug free!” – Parent-Teacher Conferences
· Thursday, Oct 23rd “Use your head! Do not do drugs!” – wear hats
· Friday, Oct 24th “Stay in the game, be drug free!” – wear Jerseys
