JCB & EJD Host Guest Speaker for Red Ribbon Week

In honor of Red Ribbon Week, EJD Middle School & JCB High School welcomed Motivational Speaker David Flood back to the PCSD community.
As a father of a special needs son, David discussed vulnerability, acceptance and the importance of remembering that everyone is going through more than we may know. If we meet one another with compassion, we will leave more room for our classmates to feel open to be themselves. David’s engaging storytelling helps kids of all ages feel seen, heard and valued. This helps foster a community of belonging, while encouraging kids of all ages to make healthy choices and support one another. David also discussed growing up with a parent who battled addiction, and the ways that shaped his life and his own struggles with addiction. David’s authenticity and passion gave students a lot to think about as they navigate their time in Middle School & High School. Thank you, David, for your commitment to creating a healthier community.
