❤️ RED RIBBON WEEK 2026: BE A HERO! 💙🦸‍♂️

Get ready, SAMS! October 26–30 is Red Ribbon Week, and this year’s theme is all about making positive choices, surrounding ourselves with great people, and being the heroes of our own stories!

We have a fun week of dress-up days planned, and we encourage all of our students and staff to participate!

🧑‍🏫 Monday, October 26: Future You Day
Dress for your future career, dream, college, or something you aspire to become!

👯 Tuesday, October 27: Choose Your Crew Day
Twin with a friend, coordinate outfits, or wear your favorite team or club shirt!

🎨 Wednesday, October 28: Your Life, Your Choice Day
Show off what makes YOU unique! Wear something that represents your favorite color, sport, music, hobby, or interest. We’ll also celebrate with special advisory activities!

😎 Thursday, October 29: Choose Your Chill Day
Stay comfortable in your favorite pajamas, sweats, or comfy clothes!

🦸‍♀️ Friday, October 30: Be a Hero Day!
Dress as your favorite superhero, everyday hero, or someone you admire!

❤️ Our message for the week: Your Life. Your Choice. Know What You’re Choosing.

Red Ribbon Week reminds us that the choices we make today help shape our future. Every student has the power to make healthy decisions, build positive relationships, and make a difference!

We can’t wait to see our SAMS students and staff show their spirit throughout the week!
