D.A.R.E. instructors graduate from training classes

As the school year approaches, Drug Abuse Resistance Education officers prepare to join students in the classroom.  19 troopers and police officers from Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Vermont graduated from the 46th D.A.R.E. Instructor Training Class. 

 

The original program began in 1983 and was aimed at fifth and sixth graders with the classes designed to help students learn how to resist peer pressure and the temptation to use illegal drugs.  D.A.R.E. has since expanded its focus to include seventh to ninth graders and such topics as alcohol and cigarettes, prescription and over-the-counter drug abuse, online safety, and gangs. 

 

The Graduates include a State Police Trooper from Troop A-Southbury, Monroe Police Officers Michael Panza  and John Yaworowski, along with Southbury Officer Anthony Armeno.
