_____________________________________________________________________________ TOPP NOTE: CAUTION - THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL - An alarming trend seems to be developing in recent years in the midlands. Celebrating the end of the school year has often become the time to have an “end of the year” unsupervised party. Many of these parties offer alcohol or other drugs for use by students. Since school often is dismissed early on the last day of the school year, students organize a party at someone’s home or cabin where parents will not be present. The purpose of the party is not only to celebrate the end of the school year, but also to have one last time together before friends go separate ways for the next few months. Schools rarely know about the parties. Parents often do not understand the scope of danger involved. This new custom may or may not be related to Senior Skip Day. This traditional day involves seniors planning a day when all “skip” school the same day and meet for a party. The site is usually someone’s cabin or an area near rivers or campsites. Alcohol and other drugs are nearly always available all day long. Again, schools usually do not know about the parties. Again, parents rarely understand the scope of the danger involved. In recent years, both of these types of unsupervised parties have resulted in tragedy. One “last day of school” party resulted in a young teen driving while intoxicated and killing a young father and injuring his daughter. A senior boy was killed by a senior girl driver leaving a Senior Skip Day party. News reports indicate that both seniors had been drinking. Reports from throughout our area indicate that unplanned sex, rapes, fights, violence and other dangerous problems have also been associated with both of these types of parties. Parents should be warned to know where their children are, whom they are with and what they are doing. Parents should also be prepared to say “no” to any dangerous, unsupervised parties....PRIDE - Omaha, Inc.
