This weekend is the beginning of Prom Season for Roanoke County Schools.  The Council wishes all students and families to have a safe and smart prom.  Please pass these tips on to anyone that will be sending their teens out this weekend.  Thank you for having the courage to care!

*Everyone in a car must buckle up for safety.

*Resist using a cell phone while driving.

*Discuss your plans and itinerary with your parents and friends.  Update them if the plans change.

*Stay at your school’s After Prom – you might just WIN A CAR!!

*Parents, support your schools  After Prom – Volunteer

*Parents, text your daughter or son an encouraging message that evening.  Students, text back!

*Parents, set the boundaries of no substances before, during or after Prom and have a plan that assists your son or daughter to call you no matter what!

Remember:  Think twice before you act. Make smart choices.
