Pocatello School District
After hearing a presentation about the Idaho Meth Project, a group of students from different high schools in the Pocatello School District designed a campaign to Rise Above the Influence of alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. This campaign included a flag design contest, with the winning flag flying at Pocatello City Hall, in Washington D.C., and at the state capital in Boise. The campaign was so well received that students in Pocatello decided to play tag with an urban and rural school in the state to design a campaign of their own. Throughout 2008, many schools in Idaho will be able to organize their own campaign to rise above the influence of alcohol, drugs, tobacco, and Meth.
