WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO BE DRUG FREE
This year I have learned a lot of things in D.A.R.E. class and I want to tell you about all of them.
First we learned what D.A.R.E. means, it means drug abuse resistance education and this means to learn to say no to misuse drugs.

I would say well I guess I am not your friend anymore, my nose doesn t work, I can t sniff.
