New Albany High School Program Focuses on Prescription Drug Abuse

February 11, 2009,

Members of the Generation Rx Initiative worked with Alli Hall, a senior at New Albany High School, to deliver an assembly to all senior students about prescription drug abuse. The program consisted of introductory remarks by Ms. Hall, a skit she wrote entitled "It's Drug Abuse!", and a testimonial by Jarrod Grossman about his recovery from drug addiction. The following BSPS students performed Alli's skit: Emily Kill, Ian Miller, Samantha Tucci, Terese Buckner and Kyle Gold.
