Held during the third full week of October each year, National School Bus Safety Week is an active and evolving public education program and an excellent way for parents, students, teachers, motorists, school bus operators, school administrators, and other interested parties to join forces and address the importance of school bus safety. Designed to promote school bus safety, school districts throughout the country observe National School Bus Safety Week.

2019 National School Bus Safety Week: October 21–25, 2019 and the theme is “My School Bus, The Safest Form of Student Transportation!” The theme of National School Bus Safety Week is derived from the Poster Contest the year before. The 2018 winning poster was drawn by Shivangi Ojha, an eighth-grade student at Belton ISD in Belton, TX.

Red Ribbon Week is October 21-25

Red Ribbons are worn to show a commitment to the drug-free lifestyle.  Wednesday is Wear Red Day.

The Red Ribbon Campaign originated when drug traffickers in 1985 murdered DEA Federal Agent Enrique Camarena.  The Red Ribbon became the symbol behind the nation’s war against drugs.  The Texas Commission on Alcohol and Drug Abuse is proud to sponsor the Red Ribbon campaign in the state of Texas.  The National Federation of Parents sponsors the national campaign.

Wearing and displaying the ribbons during this observance helped to present a unified and visible commitment to promote drug-free communities.

The theme for this year’s Texas Campaign goes beyond the symbolism of the red ribbon and asked our families, friends and neighbors to support Send A Message.  Stay Drug Free.Image may be NSFW.

The long-term goal and challenge is to develop a healthy, drug-free lifestyle as a community standard in our neighborhoods, in our state, and across our nation.
