Yesterday Operation UNITE visited CCHS with their “On The Move!” Drug education and prevention program. This five-component program is provided FREE to schools – through a partnership with the Kentucky Army National Guard – targeting students in 7th and 10th grades.
Using pre-test and post-test evaluations – compiled by Southeastern Program Evaluation, inc., “On The Move!” provides schools with real-time data collection on program instruction that is aligned with the Kentucky Core Content areas of Practical Living and Health.
The “On The Move!” program, as a whole, is designed to educate children about the dangers of making poor choices from using alcohol or other drugs. It provides them hands-on experiences for visual impairment, the brain’s reaction when impaired, and the physical reaction of the body to impairment. The combination of these elements makes the “On The Move!” initiative unique.
