Anti-Bullying Expert Jodee Blanco:
We extend an invitation to you on March 7th at 6:00 pm in the Ridgewood Auditorium to join us as Ridgewood collaborates with its partner districts to address an issue affecting several of our students. We are proud to have renowned author and veteran anti-bullying expert Jodee Blanco, one of the most impactful voices of the anti-bullying movement, to work with our students and families. Blanco, a survivor of school bullying herself, brings her wealth of experience to deliver age-appropriate student presentations, an SEL-based follow-up curriculum, and professional development for staff. The program will also include a parent/family seminar to ensure a holistic approach to tackling this issue. Blanco's realistic, practical plan of action focuses on the human element of bullying and promises sustainable change. Jodee will be working with our students during the day, our teacher after school, and our families in the evening. It takes a joint effort to help keep our students safe, and we look forward to your presence at this event. For more information about Jodee Blanco
