When it comes to education, few things are more important today than teaching students to make good decisions in life. That includes anti-drug and alcohol education, as exemplified by Red Ribbon Week.
Red Ribbon Week, traditionally held in October, is an opportunity for educators to teach drug and alcohol awareness to students from kindergarten through high school. If you’re a teacher, you know you’re always looking for ways to make the event more relevant to your classes.
That’s where we come in. Custom challenge coins are an excellent way to celebrate enthusiastic participation in good decision making. And they’re a fantastic way to help young people remember the lessons.
One effective way to promote the Red Ribbon message with coins is to present them at the end of the week, as a way to celebrate participation. Whether presented in classrooms or at school-wide assemblies, they’re an outstanding boost to student enthusiasm.
The Red Ribbon Week theme for 2021 is “Drug Free Looks Like Me.” That’s a perfect slogan to have engraved on coins to distribute to your classes. It’s a small token they can carry with them and use as a daily reminder to stay drug free. You can include your school motto, a picture of the school, or even the school mascot as well.
The coins can be a gentle reminder that students can carry with them. They can see and touch the coins whenever they are confronted with a difficult decision. Sometimes that’s all the reminder someone will need.
Our experienced artists will be glad to help you design Red Ribbon Week coins for your school. We don’t charge for art or revisions, so you can be sure they’ll look exactly the way you want. And remember, coins don’t have to be round! We can craft them in any shape you desire. Together, we can create custom icons that your students will be proud to carry and display.
