The fifth grade students at Park Elementary recently completed the D.A.R.E. program taught by Officer Farnworth of the Spanish Fork City Police Department.  A Graduation Ceremony was held in their honor on November 17, 2010.  As a requirement for graduation, students were asked to write an essay about the D.A.R.E. program, what they learened during DARE and to make a pledge to be drug free.  Three students were chosen for outstanding D.A.R.E.
