reACT to Bullying Program Coming to Highland Elementary
Friday, Aug. 26
1 p.m.
Highland Elementary School, 6701 Darmstadt Rd.
Dealing with bullies is never fun, but students at Highland Elementary will have the opportunity to reACT to bullying through a special, interactive program Friday. Matt Hart, a former theatre arts teacher, uses storytelling, videos, volunteers and live music to help students recognize bullying and to create a positive culture at the school. The program also communicates a three-step method to help students reACT appropriately and effectively.
Hart’s anti-bullying program takes his audience on a journey through his own life story. After enduring nearly two years of intense bullying, he summoned the strength to call on a coach who helped him end the situation in a positive way.Â
