School board approves Sounds of Sarah presentation and partnership
The Griffith School Board approved agenda item 4.3 on Tuesday to allow Patty Stovall, founder and CEO of Sounds of Sarah, to speak to students and families about drug risks and prevention and to coordinate local naloxone distribution. "I lost my daughter to illicit drug poisoning in 02/2021," Stovall told the board, and she said her nonprofit distributes "over 10,000 Narcan a yearly to our community in Lee County" and manages 12 naloxone boxes in local police and fire stations. The board member who moved the motion said little discussion was needed; the motion passed with the board responding "Aye." The program was presented as a prevention and awareness effort that would include presentations to students and families and distribution links with Griffith Fire Station and local law enforcement. Board members thanked Stovall for sharing her story; one commented, "I just pray that it's hard… the parents, but I mean, after all, it is the kids making the decision too." The vote recorded in the transcript is summarized as "Motion carries," indicating formal approval. The item originated in delegations and communications during the public portion of the meeting and later appeared on the consent/regular agenda as 4.3; the board approved implementation and public presentations, with program details to be coordinated between Sounds of Sarah and district staff.
