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

  • Self-Worth: Every student deserves to feel valuable.

  • Respect: Promoting kindness and positive actions toward others.

  • Emotional Support:  Understand you are not alone.

  • Leadership: Every student can lead with integrity.

EMPOWERING STUDENTS

OUR CORE VALUES

ASSEMBLY OBJECTIVS:

​​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.

 

I share my personal story of how others helped me see my value, encouraged kindness, taught me to express emotions in healthy ways, and modeled true friendship. With these building blocks, students are empowered to stop bullying at its core and create a culture of student-led change.

WHY POINT OF BREAKS 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.
