KILGORE BULLDOGS

AGAINST DRUGS

Kilgore Bulldogs Against Drugs (KBAD) is a partnership between Kilgore Independent School District and the Kilgore Police Department that aims to provide youth with education and incentives to avoid drug and tobacco use. Members work to consider the viewpoints of others, make constructive suggestions to their peers and make decisions that benefit those KBAD serves.

KISD middle school and high school students each have a KBAD board. The board members serve as ambassadors to the student body and lead the process of recruiting new members and community partners.
