All Hartford School District students are taught about the dangers of drugs and alcohol on developing brains in the health classes (for middle and high school), and by their school counselor in elementary schools. All students and families have access to a Student Assistance Provider (SAP).
Would you like to learn more about the prevention efforts within the Hartford community? Curious about the curriculum that your students are learning about? Perhaps you would like to learn more, reteach some lessons, or have a great dinner conversation?
