Los Banos Valley and Hilmar High Win 'One Pill Will Kill' Fentanyl Awareness Contest
Merced County Superintendent of Schools Dr. Steve Tietjen, Merced County District Attorney Nicole Silviera and Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke delivered good news – and $5,000 checks – to the winning students of the One Pill Will Kill Fentanyl Awareness Video Contest.
Submissions were so competitive the three judges selected two winners from the pool of submissions: “What Else is in Your Drugs?” created by students from Los Banos Valley Community School and “Drug Awareness: One Pill Can Kill” created by students from Hilmar High School.
Merced County Office of Education’s Communications team will work with students to create a 30-second, professionally produced commercial that will air on local TV stations later this winter.
The $5,000 checks, taken from asset forfeiture monies from illegal activities, are designated for each school’s anti-drug and anti-gang program.
The competition is part of the One Pill Will Kill Campaign, an initiative launched by Merced County Office of Education and Merced County District Attorney’s Office in October.
