Sloatsburg celebrated the end of the Sloatsburg Elementary School D.A.R.E. program Saturday with pasta and other good foods.

Sponsored by the The Friends of Sloatsburg School, and other private donations, the D.A.R.E. Spaghetti dinner took place in warm, cozy Church Hall at St. Joan of Arc Church. The dinner has become a traditional big finale to the Town of Ramapo Police Department 5th-grade student program – SES 5th-graders “graduated” from the program in January.

Sloatsburg’s D.A.R.E. program is run by Ramapo police Officer Danny Lynch, which focuses on providing kids with skills and incentive to recognize social pressures to experiment with drugs and alcohol.

SES Principal Dr. Joe Lloyd was on hand Saturday, February 4, for the evening festivities and captured some of the action.

Friday, February 3, leading up to the D.A.R.E. dinner, SES greeted parents and students in celebration of the school’s Fall Students of the Month. A big kudos to all those who participated.

And then there’s this great learning experience being advocated at Sloatsburg Elementary School.
