Throughout the week, the schools held different theme days in the fight against
drugs and alcohol. Hats and creative caps were worn to school to “put a cap on drugs” while
teachers and students wore mismatched outfits to show that they won’t get mixed up in
drugs on a different day. The schools each created their own themed days such as
superhero day, pajama day, bright color day, crazy clothes day, tie-dyed/’60s day,
blue/gold day and backward shirt day so students can “turn their backs on drugs.”
