Red Ribbon Week celebrated
Students and staff at CTE at BOCES 2 participated in Red Ribbon Week with students across the nation to celebrate making healthy choices and remaining drug-free. CTE students signed a pledge card to making a personal commitment to a drug-free lifestyle. To celebrate, a poster contest, along with hat day, wear red day and fitness day were held. The CTE annual blood drive completed the week with 75 pints of blood donated by students and staff.
