SADD club stresses smart decisions

“Everything from texting, drinking, drugs, to stealing, cheating, and not doing homework [is covered],” special services teacher and club sponsor Jennifer Pope said.

Posters around the school challenge students to make better choices over destructive ones, and the people behind it have a purpose for putting these up. Students Against Destructive Decisions, otherwise known as the SADD, are striving to propose positive decision-making for students who may make bad decisions that tends to be stereotypical for teenagers. These decisions may cause a bad turnout later on, and the club wants to prevent that.

“Everything from texting, drinking, drugs, to stealing, cheating, and not doing homework [is covered],” special services teacher and club sponsor Jennifer Pope said.

A student-led group, the club shares ideas of what they feel is important to emphasize at the high-school level. After they brainstorm, they then make posters and come up with ideas to help suggest these ideas. They meet once a week after school in room A138, and the club ranges from around seven to ten students every week, and anyone is welcome to join.

“We try to spread the word around the school,” sophomore Emily Berling said. “I like making positive influences.”

As some may have seen in the hallway, the club makes a lot of posters to help share the word to the students in the school. This past month, the club focused on cheating and stealing. They held a SADD social event on Sunday and had ice cream sundaes while brainstorming ideas.

“They’ve already done one event. It was called ‘It can wait’, which was last month,” Pope said.

The event handled the issue of texting and driving, and posters were displayed around the school.

One of the upcoming goals for the club is to create a public service announcement every month and broadcast it on the announcements so the school can be advised to make smarter decisions.
