SADD Contract for Life
A Foundation for Trust and Caring
This Contract is designed to facilitate communication between young people and their parents about potentially
destructive decisions related to alcohol, drugs, peer pressure, and behavior. The issues facing young people
today are often too difficult for them to address alone. SADD believes that effective parent-child
communication is critically important in helping young adults to make healthy decisions.
EHTHS STUDENT (Print Name) _____________________________________________________________
I recognize that there are many potentially destructive decisions I face every day and
commit to you that I will do everything in my power to avoid making decisions that
will jeopardize my health, my safety and overall well-being, or your trust in me. I
understand the dangers associated with the use of alcohol and drugs and the destructive
behaviors often associated with impairment.
By signing below, I pledge my best effort to remain free from alcohol and drugs; I
agree that I will never drive under the influence; I agree that I will never ride with an
impaired driver; and I agree that I will always wear a seat belt.
Finally, I agree to call you if I am ever in a situation that threatens my safety and to
communicate with you regularly about issues of importance to both of us.
EHTHS STUDENT (Sign Name) _____________________________________________________________
PARENT/GAURDIAN (Print Name) __________________________________________________________
I am committed to you and to your health and safety. By signing below, I pledge to
do everything in my power to understand and communicate with you about the
many difficult and potentially destructive decisions you face.
Further, I agree to provide for you safe, sober transportation home if you are ever in a
situation that threatens your safety and to defer discussions about that situation until
a time when we can both have a discussion in a calm and caring manner.
I also pledge to you that I will not drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs, I will
always seek safe, sober transportation home, and I will always wear a seat belt.

Transportation Form
To ensure the safety of our students, the administration has decided to provide transportation for all students to
the prom. The cost of this transportation is included in the price of the prom ticket REGARDLESS OF
WHETHER OR NOT YOU TAKE THE COACH BUS! Students may still choose to take their own
transportation to the prom in the form of a hired service only (i.e. limo) or parental drop off. However, they
must pay for this themselves and understand that they have still paid for the bus via their prom ticket.
STUDENTS MAY NOT DRIVE THEMSELVES TO THE PROM!
*VERY IMPORTANT* Students will decide whether they are taking the bus or not prior to purchasing their
prom ticket. Once you have notified us you may not change your mind to take the bus! Again, if you tell us
that you are taking a limo and your plans fall through, you will not be allowed to take the bus to the prom!
Please make your decision carefully and consider taking the provided transportation. It is safe, reliable and you
are paying for it anyway!
Yes, I will be taking the bus
Yes, my guest will be taking the bus
No, I will not be taking the bus to the prom. I understand that I am responsible for providing my own
transportation in the form of a paid service or parental drop off and that I may not drive myself or have another
student drive me to the prom.
I,________________________________________ (Print Name), have read and understand the above terms
and conditions regarding the transportation to the prom.
