Parents: Graduation Safety

Tips from the Safe Community Coalition to keep your teens safe during this wonderful, yet dangerous, time of year.

"Parents Who Host Lose the Most"

What parents should know about underage drinking:

• It is illegal for anyone under 21 to drink alcohol.

• Under age 24, the brain is still growing and negatively affected by alcohol.

• Parents can be prosecuted under the law for hosting underage drinking parties.

• It is unsafe and illegal for persons under 21 to drive after consuming alcohol (.02 blood alcohol content or above).

• Don’t risk living with the burden of an unnecessary death or accident because you provided or allowed alcohol use by someone under the age of 21.

The day is in two parts: in the morning, there will be sessions covering reading for an AP class, writing for an AP class, and test-taking skills; in the afternoon, there will be breakout sessions for individual classes with AP teachers. Lunch will be provided for students who sign up for the full day.

Students who will take AP American Civilization should check this list again if they first viewed it prior to Friday, May 29th. Although it is not a book that will need to be purchased, there has been an addition to the reading for AP American Civilization.
