The Challenge Day "Be The Change" club will meet on Thursdays instead of Wednesdays in the media center from 2:30 - 3:30 p.m.Come help create a more positive school environment.

ALL STUDENTS ARE WELCOME!

The Royal Oak SADD Chapter (Students Against Destructive Decisions) meet every Thursday in the Media Center from 2:30 - 3. They are currently planning an evening for girls and their moms - it will focus on young women’s issues - dating, safety issues, body image, self-esteem and self-care. We have two therapists that will be facilitating the night. In addition, we will serve a pizza dinner and soft drinks prior to the evening. We are hoping for a few quest visitors too. More to come on this; it is being planned for late April or early May.

The SADD Chapter is also planning activities for the week of Prom that promote healthy and safe choices. We hope to facilitate a raffle for up-do's and nails etc ... a few weeks prior to the prom. Look for more to come on this!
