Too Good For Drugs (K-6)

Who should attend?

Too Good For Drugs is intended for K-6 elementary grade classroom teachers.

About the training:

Too Good For Drugs (TGFD) is a school-based prevention program proven to reduce the intention to use alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs among students. TGFD consists of sequential curricula, developmentally appropriate to each grade level, which builds on skills learned in the previous years. While one year of TGFD has produced measurable positive effects, multi-year programming prevents or reduces degradation of these effects. For maximum effectiveness, TGFD should be implemented each school year. This prevention curriculum helps districts meet Local Education Agency Plan (LEAP) and CPM requirements.

This program:

  • Promotes positive pro-social behaviors and school bonding
  • Develops positive life skills
  • Encourages positive, violence and drug free norms
  • Fulfills a Categorical Program Monitoring requirement

Too Good For Drugs - each grade-level kit includes a scripted curriculum with 10 lessons and teaching materials. Each lesson includes rational, objectives, materials list, recommended resources, lesson extenders and a "Home Workout" or "Home Pages" for parents.
