II. Narrative Report of the Activity
San Jose Provincial High School offers “preventive treatment” on
drugs and alcohol through education. We are committed to helping
the pupils stop addiction before it begins, and it is for this reason
that the teaching staffs tackle the issue before it becomes a
problem through different programs activities and with the
partnership of Local Government Unit (LGU) and Philippine
National Police (PNP).
Why is drug education so important to have in schools?
Drug education programs lower the percentage of school- aged
children abusing drugs and alcohol. The importance of this cannot
be understated, because it’s been found that young people who
have abused drugs early in life are more likely to become addicted
than those introduced to drug use after the age of 21.
Kids who have received prevention messages early on in life are
significantly less likely to do drugs than those who have not
received such messages.
 As an additional note, kids with parents who are involved in
educating the child about drugs, have dinners with their children,
and have shown that they disapprove of drug abuse are less likely
to abuse drugs. In fact, just eating dinner and talking with your
child five to seven nights a week lowers the chances of the child
abusing drugs.
Honestly, the most effective drug education is where the parents
and school and teachers are both working together. Showing they
care and actively communicating with the child on a regular basis.
This is the best way to prevent future drug addiction.
Additionally, it helps the child see that if they become entangled in
drugs, there are people who care enough to help them and will not
support and enable their harmful habit.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS
All these accomplishments were influenced by the commitment
of the entire staff including the school principal, Mrs. Esther M.
Villarin and some government officials who have committed to
make things happen even amidst of some difficulties.
