D.A.R.E. / G.R.E.A.T.

D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) and G.R.E.A.T. (Gang Resistance Education and Training) are school-based, law enforcement officer-instructed classroom curriculums with the primary focus of educating children and providing them with the skills they need to avoid involvement in drugs, gangs, and violence.

Sergeant Vernon Shobe has been an active D.A.R.E. officer since 2001 and currently teaches both the D.A.R.E. and G.R.E.A.T. curriculum to those students attending Fairfield North Elementary School and Fairfield East Elementary School.

If you have any questions or would like further information about the D.A.R.E./G.R.E.A.T. programs, please email Sgt. Vern Shobe or contact him at his direct extension (513) 785-4170.
