The Wright County Sheriff’s Office has announced that it is seeking home-schooled students for the D.A.R.E. program in Wright County. Officials say the unique program will be offered at the Wright County Sheriff’s Office this spring.
The D.A.R.E. curriculum is the largest, most comprehensive science and evidence-based K-12 prevention education curriculum in the world. The curriculum is taught in thousands of classrooms throughout America’s 50 states and 29 other countries.
The 5th and 6th-grade D.A.R.E. program consists of 10, one-hour lessons and a D.A.R.E. graduation. After the 10 lessons are taught, the 5th and 6th-grade students will have gained knowledge and skills on how to say no to alcohol and tobacco in addition to helping them make safe and responsible decisions throughout their life.
For more information on this program, please contact D.A.R.E Deputy Brandon Lamack at 763-274-8420 or via email at: brandon.lamack@co.wright.mn.us
