Local schools make an effort to prevent tobacco use
ALEXANDRIA, La. (KALB) - Some of you might not know about National Kick Butts Day.
Central Louisiana students from 53 schools in 7 school districts participated on Wednesday in an effort to prevent tobacco and drug use.
Tioga High School and Alexandria Middle Magnet School were two schools here at home that recognized the day.
A few students at Tioga were chosen to represent the effects of tobacco use, some of those effects could lead to death. During the school's lunch break, students were able to see a tombstone of significant people who lost their lives from tobacco use. Read more at KALB

Message from our Superintendent
Welcome back to the start of the 2018-2019 school year. Our district’s vision and the reason that our school system exists is to prepare our students for success. For the vast majority of those students, that success will ultimately be defined in the workplace. So, we must create learning environments that provide opportunities for students to develop the skills that they are going to need to be successful.
