Principal, Mr. Thackston opened the ceremony welcoming the visitors and congratulating the students on what they had learned.

Also in attendance was our Superintendent, Dr. Venus Holland, Mr. Jim Hinton, and Little Miss South Carolina, Sarah Catherine Cantrell (a Springdale student).
The student's learned good decision-making skills which will help them lead safe and healthy lives. The D.A.R.E. Vision states “A world in which students everywhere are empowered to respect others and choose to lead lives free from violence, substance abuse, and other dangerous behaviors.”

Cassidy Thomas-Overall 5th grade winner
