Drug and alcohol education is standard fare for high-school health class – but 100 students at West Seattle High School got information from two special visitors today: Miss Washington, Brittney Henry, and Washington National Guard’s anti-drug task-force Specialist Brian Eagen. Teachers Sarah Orton and Craig Richardson report that the two visitors discussed the “Effects of Drugs and Alcohol” through “personal stories, surveying students on their knowledge, and teaching the students about drugs and the short/long-term effects of drugs on the body.”
