October Cats Have Character

For October Bloomfield Elementary School is promoting SELF-DISCIPLINE and drug prevention. The Self-Discipline newsletter (link on left side of blog) provides parents with ideas to encourage our students to be in control of their thoughts and actions. Bloomfield Elementary will celebrate Red Ribbon Week during October 24 – 31. The Red Ribbon Campaign was started when drug traffickers in Mexico City murdered Kiki Camarena, a DEA agent, in 1985. This began the continuing tradition and displaying of Red Ribbons as a symbol of intolerance towards the use of drugs. The mission of the Red Ribbon Campaign is to present a unified and visible commitment toward the creation of a drug-free America.
