The objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the drug education program that is being conducted by a local primary school using a mixed-method study design that incorporates a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest purpose with a seven-week and four month follow-up with sets of students and personnel who assist in the curriculum. This research analysis will measure the effects of the groups of students that are focused during this drug education program. During the collaborative approach, the researcher will seek to illustrate the effects of drugs through education. In addition, the framework is essential to the interpretation of data. The statistics are going to come from interview transcripts, field notes from field observations, and questionnaires and surveys results.

Traditional drug education programs start at the age of 9 while this program will start one group at the age of 8. The second group will start at the age of 11. Both female and male students will be participating in the program.
Research Design and Procedures
After the consent of the parent/guardian of the student, the program will begin with the selection of 20 random 3rd grade students while the rest of students in the class will start at the age of 11. Following these lines of thinking, a mixed-method approach of the drug education program is proposed. The selected group of 20 students will attend one class session of 45 minutes once a week. It is proposed that initial start of the classes will begin in the fall of 2018. The instructor will introduce the program through a pretest along with lesson plan covering the definition of what a drug is and a comprehensive list of all legal and illegal substances. Each course will include
