Anti Bullying Workshops for Parents and Faculty

In order to expand upon the success of the student assembly, many schools have asked for presentations specifically geared to parents and to faculty.  Jim is able to provide both.

Parent Workshop

The parent workshop discusses topics such as:

• The various types of bullying
• Possible causes
• Common misconceptions effects of bullying on victims bullies and bystander
• Identifying signs of bullying
• Preventive steps parents can take to take to guard against their child being bullied.

Parents are also treated to an abbreviated version of the assembly that their child has seen. By seeing this assembly, parents are provided an ideal tool to help foster communication at home on the topic.

Faculty Workshop

The faculty workshop discusses topics such as:

• Results of unchecked bullying
• The various types of bullying
• Possible causes
• Common misconceptions effects of bullying on victims bullies and bystander
• Identifying signs of bullying
• Concrete steps to take in fostering an environment that minimizes the likelihood of bullying
• Preventive steps to implement to foster caring and concerned bystanders

These adult workshops are an excellent way to insure that everyone involved - faculty, administration, parents and students - are all using the same vocabulary and employing the same tools in dealing with this crucial concern.

"We look forward to having you back soon" "What perhaps is the most important for our school is that, after having you speak to the students, faculty and parents, we are now "all on the same page" in terms of implementing techniques and using vocabulary to deal with bullying." - Carol T.
