PCA Celebrates Red Ribbon Week
Prattville Christian Academy will join schools across the nation in celebration of Red Ribbon Week during the week of October 23-27. This annual event encourages students to discover that the Lord wants us to make better choices with our lives and not to do anything that would alter our minds. The national theme for this year is “Your Future is Key so Stay Drug-Free.”
In keeping with the national theme, Tori Demaio ’20 created PCA’s Red Ribbon shirt design. All proceeds from shirt sales will be divided among the charitable organizations. To order, download the order form. All forms must be returned by October 16.
In addition to encouraging students to remain drug-free, PCA chooses to give back to selected organizations in our community. Click here for additional details about the daily mission challenges.
