WITH THESE KEY PRINCIPLES AS OUR FOUNDATION, WE CAN TAILOR  OUR ASSEMBLY TO YOUR SCHOOL'S OBJECTIVES

EMPOWERING STUDENTS

OUR CORE VALUES

ASSEMBLY OBJECTIVES:

​​Students will learn to:

  1. Recognize their value

    • Understand that self-worth isn’t defined by others’ opinions. A healthy mindset shapes feelings, actions, and ultimately, success in life.

  2. Encourage kindness and empathy

    • ​Discover the power of words and actions to uplift others, showing respect and compassion in daily interactions.

  3. Cope with emotions in healthy ways

    • Realize they are not alone. Learn why bottling up anger and frustration leads to harmful behaviors, and how talking with trusted adults can help.

  4. Be a good friend

    • Stand beside peers who are struggling. Sometimes listening and showing support makes all the difference.

 

​

Through Joe’s personal story, students learn their value, choose kindness, express emotions in healthy ways, and build genuine friendships.

WHY POINT OF BREAK WORKS:

Reinforced Messages: Research shows that the more people who surround kids with a message, the greater the potential for the message to leave a lasting impression.

Engaging Learning: Many students learn best through visual demonstrations and representations, making our program highly effective. 

Empowerment: The program is designed to reinforce and empower students with the messages you are already teaching, enhancing their understanding and application.
