School Shows

Making good personal choices is one of the most important success factors children can learn. Kids need to know that gathering critical information is important to make informed choices& and that's what this show is all about! Some of the most crucial choices kids can make have to do with bullying. Should they help another student that's in trouble and, if so, how do they do it? How do they use their "inner compass" to steer by this trouble area in their school and personal life? None of these questions are easy ones but they must be dealt with correctly. That's what this "Personal Choices" show can do. It's intended to give the schools more tools to use as a deterrent to this national problem.

I hope I am one small piece in this puzzle that will help turn around bullying or potential bullying problems for you. Good character is always the answer and we can work together as a team to make it happen!!
