5 Things: Family Day, Munger Road Clothing Drive and More
Also, two Board of Education committees meet tonight.
Here are five things going on for Sept. 26:
1. Fun Fact: Family Day was started on Sept. 26, 2001 by The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. This holiday encourages parents to "eat dinner with your children" because the frequent family sit-down encourages conversation, which can be an effective way to keep kids free from drug abuse.
