WHY RIGHT CHOICES™   works
for ANTI-BULLYING when
other programs fail.

Relying on school personnel or volunteers to drive an ongoing initiative like anti-bullying or social skills training is unrealistic without providing EASY school wide DVD driven curriculum lessons that GUARANTEE efficacy of implementation.

Listed below are some of the highlights of needed components (according to anti-bullying expert Dr. Olweus) that Right Choices provides automatically through plug and play lessons whether over the ITV system, DVD player, computer or our new VIRTUAL ACCESS ONLINE.

THE RIGHT CHOICES™ DVD driven curriculum provides the engine that consistently drives an effective school wide discipline and anti-bullying program.
(Based on extensive research from Dr. Olweus’ anti-bullying model)

1) Cooperative Learning groups are important for mutual positive bonding and empowerment of all. (Victims, bullies and bystanders).  The Right Choices™ curriculum consistently provides system wide weekly cooperative learning activities where we model, discuss and role play important skills like:

3) A COMMITTEE to ensure the education, training and awareness component is integrated into every day language at school and at home.

4)  We interviewed ex-bullies, victims and bystanders for their insights and tips for dealing with bullying (See Video montage below)

1) Class rules are clear. (Right Choice curriculum ensures that rules are also the same school wide, everywhere the student goes for transfer of training.)

2) Cooperative Learning groups are important for mutual positive dependence and for crucial victim bonding and empowerment.  The Right Choices lessons are set up in cooperative learning groups for lessons 2-4 of each skill.

3) Class meetings with parents -  Right Choices has a parent component for use at individual parent or PTA meetings.

We have integrated a highly effective anti-bullying program into the Award Winning Right Choices Social Skills Training Program.
