Shepherd Middle School Students Against Doing Drugs (S.A.D.D.) is a school based student group that focuses on the promotion of anti-drug lifestyles. Student participation is on a voluntary basis. S.A.D.D. works hand in hand with our school community and the City of Ottawa to help promote our community involved messages. S.A.D.D. members take part in regular "Adopt a Hi-way" clean up efforts in and around Shepherd Middle School. Members also sponsor various charity drives such as our annual drive for supplies for the PADS Shelter, clothing drives for the homeless of our community and various other charitable organizations. S.A.D.D. members sponsor a drug free night, referred to locally as "5th Quarter", which encourages students to come to the school for a night of drug and violence free.
