To encourage drug and alcohol free choices, Jackson
Elementary students participated in a poster contest to show everyone that it
is “My Life, My Choice”. One winner in each grade received 4 tickets to
an Altoona Curve home game. As part of the presentation, students were
also treated to a video which was created by students during BOLD/GOLD in
March, which carried the same message.
