Character Education
Character Education Word for May: Dependable

Definition: To be consistent in your actions and behavior, and to be steadfast in doing what is needed or expected of you.

Dependable is…Having others count on you. Doing the right thing,
even when it’s difficult. Being credible. Finding your purpose, and fulfilling it.

TEST MY TEEN

The Springfield Police Department recognizes that unfortunately, "friends" often try harder to make kids who say no to drugs, alcohol and tobacco feel like outcasts. Home testing kits have emerged that protect privacy and provide kids with a socially acceptable excuse, "my parents test me."

For years, police have been the first to know when local kids used drugs while their parents were often the last to know. The SPD in conjunction with the Missouri Police Chiefs is combating this through a new alliance with TestMyTeen.com, an organization that has donated over $5,000 worth of free home drug test kit vouchers to be shared anonymously with parents who need them.
