Red Ribbon Week celebrated at Malta Public Schools

October 23-31, 2017, marked the twenty-ninth National Red Ribbon Week. Red Ribbon Week is a National Drug Prevention Campaign celebrated every year during the last full week in October as a way to promote awareness of the dangers of illegal drugs and drug abuse. It also commemorates the memory of DEA Special Agent Enrique "Kiki" Camarena, who died in the line of duty while fighting the battle against drug trafficking. People began wearing red ribbons as a symbol of their commitment to raise awareness of the killing and destruction caused by drugs in America.
