Each time students put garbage in its proper place, remind them to stay away from drugs. Create signs to tape to each waste receptacle in your school; perhaps volunteers can help with this. The signs should say things like “Don’t Throw Your Life Away...Don’t Do Drugs.” Junipero Serra Elementary in Ventura, California had signs wrapped around lunch trash cans that read “ Drugs Belong In The Trash” and “Drugs Are Garbage.” Once your signs are in place, distribute “Don’t Let Drugs Pollute Your Mind” Temporary Tattoos. When you spot a student wearing a tattoo, ask if he or she can recite one of the trash can slogans. If so, award a “Don’t Let Drugs Pollute Your Mind” Heat Sensitive Pencil.
