D.A.R.E. Graduation-5th Grade

Describe the problem, challenge or opportunity, Assess the choices, Respond and make a choice with the information given, Evaluate and review if you made a good decision.  These are the the four steps in the DARE decision making model, and students in Mrs. Houg's 5th grade classroom were able to participate recently in the DARE graduation.  The DARE program was taught by school liaison officer and Lester Prairie Police Chief Robert Carlson over the course of several weeks.  To graduate from the program students needed to write an essay outlining aspect of DARE, including what they learned and how they can effectively use the DARE decision making model.  Special guests in attendance were School Resource Officer Patrick Geiken, McLeod County Sheriff  Scott Rehmann, Lester Prairie Police Chief Robert Carlson, Lester Priarie School Superintendent Mike McNulty, and Staff Sergeant John Zellmer from the Marine Corps.
