The Clarkston High School S.A.D.D (Students Against Destructive Decisions) group sought out pledges from peers to have a drug and alcohol free Spring Break, which runs, April 18-25.
The S.A.D.D group are recent recipients of the Youth Leaders Award from M.A.D.D of Oakland County. They’ve been busy this school year promoting drug and alcohol free life styles by doing such things as pledging, holding a school-wide assembly, and much more. Before prom, they’ll have a crash car on campus, which will show students the consequences of making poor choices. And they are planning on holding a car wash to raise funds for Tricia Taylor, an 18-year-old Clarkston girl, who lost her legs after being hit by a drunk driver while walking in downtown Pontiac.
The CHS S.A.D.D are 40-members strong, an increase from last year’s 15 members.
