It's Party Time
The following State Sheriff's Associations & School Resource Officers Associations have
adopted It's Party Time as their Official Statewide School Drug Prevention Curriculum.
______________________________________________
What is It's Party Time?
It's Party Time is a seven session drug & alcohol prevention curriculum for student 6th grade and up. It's a simulator in the form of a board game that lets kids experience the financial, social and health consequences of using tobacco, drugs and alcohol. The curriculum is designed for a maximum class of 30 students. The class divides up into six teams and is assigned a drug of choice which includes:
- Meth
- Prescription Pills
- Alcohol
- Marijuana
- Tobacco
- Non-User
The curriculum includes a pre-test, post-test, a class DVD presentation about addiction and a one hour take home DVD for parents to keep which which answers six key questions about drugs and addiction.
The program connects the three most important authority figures responsible for raising drug free kids. The school, law enforcement and most importantly the parents. We are not just asking parents to talk to their kids about drugs but we are arming them with the information which gives them the confidence to address the issue.
It's Party Time was created by Dawson County Sheriffs' Deputy, Lieutenant Tony Wooten. Officer Wooten has piloted the program for the past two years with outstanding reviews from the school administration, students, parents and fellow law enforcement.
The It's Party Time curriculum exceeds the CDC's School Health Education Resources (SHER) and the National Health Education Standards (NHES) requirements. The standards provide a framework for curriculum development and selection, instruction, and student assessment in health education.
