Claremont Unified School District's tobacco, drug and violence prevention programs represent essential components of a student's comprehensive learning support system. Designed to change attitudes and behaviors for students, our programs enable our community and schools to create safe disciplined, drug and tobacco-free environments as well as to promote attitudes and behaviors that help all students grow up healthy. By supporting health education, student services, family counseling, and early intervention programs, Claremont Unified School District's goal is to enhance achievement for students while it provides an integrated delivery system of services to students and families in the community. In an effort to ensure our schools are safe and secure for each and every student and staff member a Hotline has been installed for the purpose of reporting any concern which may jeopardize the safety of any staff member or student. Additionally, a full list of Crisis Hotline Numbers is available to adolescents and their families provided by the Claremont Youth Partnership.
