D.A.R.E. PROGRAM Officer Christopher D. Flynn is the department current D.A.R.E. Officer. He has served in the position since 2002. Officer Flynn instructs at all three elementary schools for the public school system of Massena Central and the Trinity Catholic School. Officer Patrick J. Serguson served as the department’s DARE officer from 1994 to 2007. D.A.R.E. is a cooperative program between the schools, police and students to help students make better decisions and to keep kids off drugs. DARE is an interactive class where students are engaged in problem solving, in depth discussions and role playing. The goal of the DARE program is to significantly reduce/eliminate the use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs and the use of violent behavior by our kids. Students will understand the physical, social and legal risks and effects of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana and inhalants on their developing brains and bodies. Students will compare and contrast the normative beliefs of peers in their classroom with the national data about teen use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs. Students will expand their knowledge about a variety of positive things to do in the school and in the community that does not involve the use of drugs. Students will develop tools and strategies to use in real life situations when faced with the pressures in today’s society. VACANT HOUSE CHECK
