In recognition of Red Ribbon Week, members from the Student Council led students in a Drug Free Pledge during lunch. The Red Ribbon campaign was started when drug traffickers in Mexico City murdered Kiki Camarena, a DEA agent, in 1986. This began the continuing tradition of displaying Red Ribbons as a symbol of intolerance towards the use of drugs.
