Prom Protection
We’re at the center of prom period and all Howard County public high schools offer after- pursuits, paid from the colleges’ guardian-trainer associations. Both prom attendees -attenders are welcome to be involved in secure after – prom festivities.

The Howard County Public School Program (HCPSS) companions with HC drug-free to market alcohol/drug-safety, and HC DrugFree makes presentations for parents & kids at highschools throughout the year.

I understand everyone promotes teenagers to ???play it safe??? during week pursuits that are mature. Just like the Howard State pursuits, the vendors specific alcohol and drug free occasions in July for senior school graduates remembering on the shore.

Let???s interact to make certain individuals have a balanced secure and pleased satisfied stop towards the school year.
