I am proud to congratulate the newest D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) graduates from Nikiski North Star Elementary. Fifth graders in Mr. Floyd's, Ms Matson's and Ms. Barnes class successfully completed the D.A.R.E. program. These students are pledging to stay away from drugs, alcohol and smoking, as well as making smart life decisions.

...children away from the pitfalls of drug and alcohol abuse. I enjoyed teaching the students about D.A.R.E. and look forward to future partnerships with Nikiski North Star Elementary staff to educate our youth. Thanks! Trooper E. R. Hunter
