Here Are The 2023-24 Angelina County Drug Free All Stars

The school year is underway and that means it's time to reveal the 2023-2024 Drug-Free All Stars for Angelina County. According to The Coalition, the All Stars are a group of high school seniors from Angelina County who are selected to serve as role models for their community by living an alcohol, drug, and tobacco-free lifestyle.

Drug-Free All Stars are active throughout the school year by volunteering in the community to promote a healthy and drug-free lifestyle. Recently, the Drug-Free All Stars attended training on the topics they will focus on throughout the year during their volunteer opportunities, including underage drinking prevention, marijuana prevention, tobacco prevention, prescription drug misuse, and media literacy and advocacy.

Those individuals who helped with the training sessions included Kellen Kruk, from the Texas School Safety Center at Texas State University, and Veronica Smith, from the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Council of Deep East Texas.

The All Stars this year consist of 59 students from eight Angelina County high schools including Central, Diboll, Hudson, Huntington, Lufkin, Pineywoods Community Academy, St. Cyprian’s Episcopal School and Zavalla.

The Drug-Free All Star program is funded by the Texas Department of Transportation in order to prevent the consequences associated with underage alcohol and drug use.
