With support from the Glasgow Police Department the Middle School concluded with the door decorating contest and celebration.

Second place was awarded to Ms. Weber's sixth-grade home base with their door: Chucky, Drugs are not Child's Play. Her class reieved hot chocolate and donuts.
"I would say that Red Ribbon Week went pretty well," stated Glasgow Middle School counselor Ms. Nicole Boos. "Every morning we had a reading for the students that explained what the theme for the doors were and why it was important. All of the home base classrooms did an amazing job of linking the theme to a movie. All students received ice cream for participating."
Opheim School observed Red Ribbon Week Oct. 28 through 31 with designated theme days of Movie Monster – Scare Drugs Away," Stunt Double - Don't Let Drugs Stunt Your Future, Spotlight The Vikings – Shine Away From Drugs and Halloween – Drugs Are Not A Treat Only A Trick.

Since that time, the campaign has reached millions of U.S. children and families.
