Alcohol...Let's Start Talking About It!

According to the 2015 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) taken by Pulaski High School Students:

  • 32.2 % of students reported drinking alcohol during the 30 days before the survey was given.
  • 16.9 % of students reported having had 5 or more drinks (binge drinking) during the 30 days before the survey was given.
  • 59.9 % of the students reported that they feel their parents think drinking alcohol at least 2x/month is wrong or very wrong.
Excessive alcohol consumption is the 3rd leading cause of preventable death in the United States.
