An important program in BVSD that works to deter students from abusing drugs is the Gateway Drug Peer Educators program. Peer Educators are BVSD high school students who make numerous presentations to help educate middle school students about the consequences of drug use. These high school students have dedicated much time and effort to provide valuable education and resources to middle school students about gateway drugs. Classroom presentations have included information on addiction, peer pressure, and making good decisions.
 
New Gateway Drug Peer Educators receive comprehensive training that includes (but is not limited to) interpersonal skills, public speaking, gateway drugs, stages of change, and health content.
 
For more information on the Gateway Drug Peer Educators, please contact Kelly Miller, LCSW, Positive Behavior Support Coordinator, Office of Institutional Equity, Boulder Valley School District, (303) 870-7398, kelly.miller@bvsd.org
