Purpose

The purpose of P3  is to promote a positive atmosphere for our students which will enable them to make the right choices concerning the use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs (ATOD), as well as sexual abstinence until marriage.

 

Sponsors

The current sponsor of Huntland P-cubed is Janet Colburn colburnj@12tn.net .  Our club has approximately 70 members.

 

Membership

The membership of P3 will include students who have demonstrated a commitment to remain free of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs and are willing to develop the leadership skills necessary to be a positive influence on his or her peers. 

 

Member Pledge

I pledge to use my power of influence in a positive way, show my pride by standing tall in what I believe, and to prevent my peers from harming themselves and others. 

(This pledge is signed by the student and sponsors. They are given a card with the pledge for their wallet.)
