This Week @ SR - April 21, 2025

Happy Friday Students and Families,

Prom is tomorrow and I  want to ensure our students have a fun time while staying safe. Raising the Bar, Keep Youth Events Substance Free (RTB) aims to shift the norms of substance use and encourage adult modeling of healthy choices. We ask for your support to keep pre-prom and graduation events alcohol and substance-free. 

Raising the Bar is a county-wide initiative created in 2017 when the California County Health Rankings showed that Marin County ranked higher than 80% of all counties in the state for excessive adult alcohol consumption. The youth data is also alarmingly high, with Marin County 11th graders current BINGE DRINKING rate doubling the state average (2X)*.

We have a significant impact on our teens’ decisions regarding alcohol. Hence, it’s important for them to see that adults can have a good time without drinking alcohol and using substances at youth-centered events. By working together, we can have a direct impact on the health of our youth, and decrease the short and long-term consequences of underage substance use on adolescents, families, and our community as a whole. 

Raising the Bar partners with the Marin Prevention Network, Marin Health and Human Services, schools, local coalitions, and youth organizations throughout Marin County to promote healthy adult modeling. For more information on this important county-wide initiative, please check out the website at Raising the Bar. 

Here are some other resources you may find helpful in keeping your teens healthy and safe:

Let's Talk Booklets and Discussion Series

Also keep in mind that students attending prom will take a breathalyzer prior to entering the venue to ensure a safe and sober event. Students under the influence will be subject to school discipline including loss of privileges (graduation ceremony, awards, etc) and will need to be picked up by their parents and/oor SRPD.

Sincerely,

Joe Ryan Dominguez (he/him)
