Yesterday, two of our outstanding Teens On Prevention students, Abbi Terrill and Sylis DuBois, along with Ms. Sanders(SHS), Carlos Lopez(HDC), and Sherry Lea(HDC) represented Salem at the 2026 Missouri Substance Use Prevention Conference! 🌟
In addition to taking part in insightful breakout sessions and hearing from inspiring keynote speakers, Abbi and Sylis had the incredible honor of addressing an audience of over 400 attendees, writing and delivering speeches based on the prompt "I Wish Adults Knew"! They were two of only nine students selected statewide to speak at this event. 🎤✨
Both students did a phenomenal job sharing their insights and making Salem proud! A special thank you to Healthy Dent County Prevention Coalition and Prevention Consultants of Missouri for sponsoring our attendance and supporting youth leadership in prevention. 👏
Good morning, students!
This year’s Red Ribbon Week theme is “Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free.™”
At Salem High School, we believe every one of you has the power to make a difference. By choosing to stay drug-free, you’re taking control of your story and building a strong, healthy future. Heroes show up for themselves—and today is another chance to do just that.
Thursday's spirit day theme is Red-y to Save the Day: Wear Red.
Students should wear as many red items as possible. Each item will be counted and added to the Tiger Olympics team totals.

As we continue Red Ribbon Week, remember: “Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free.™”
True heroes don’t follow the crowd—they lead with confidence. You don’t need drugs to fit in or stand out. Being yourself, making healthy choices, and respecting who you are is what real courage looks like. Be proud of the hero you are becoming.
The Spirit Day theme is Don't Fall for the Lies: White Lie Day.
Students can write a saying on a sticker or a white T-shirt that says something untrue about them. These sayings must be school-appropriate. Examples might include: I've traveled the world; I love mornings; I don't like Disney movies.

Remember our theme: “Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free.™”
Heroes protect what matters most— their health, their goals, and their community. By staying drug-free, you’re proving that you believe in yourself and the future you’re working toward. Keep choosing the path that helps you grow stronger every day.
Tuesday's Spirit Day Theme is Drugs Don't Make Sense: Rhyme Without Reason.
Pair up or group up and dress up like people or things that rhyme but don't necessarily go together. Examples can include: Barbie and army, chef and ref, king and sting.
