Catholic school division hosting fentanyl information sessions
Highly dangerous and unpredictably lethal, fentanyl can affect all demographics, including youth.
For this reason, Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools is hosting a pair of information sessions geared towards educating parents on the misuse of fentanyl.
Dave Khatib, Associate Superintendent of Inclusive Learning says while parents are the target audience, the idea is to create an overall safer community.
“If we can create awareness of the potential dangers, we’re not only helping the students and families of Red Deer Catholic, but of the communities in Sylvan Lake and Red Deer,” he says.
The first session is March 15 from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at École Mother Teresa School in Sylvan Lake. The second is March 26 from 7-8 p.m. at Ecole Secoindaire Notre Dame High School in Red Deer. Both will feature information not only from the school district, but also Turning Point and RCMP.
