SCHOOL PRESENTATIONS:

 Stay Driven-Anti-Bullying Presentation

 H.O.L.L.A. bullying program H – Help O – Outlet L - Lead L - Leave A - Assert Pick a letter out of the H.O.L.L.A. acronym and write about a time that you have used that skill to get you out of a problem using a positive solution. Example: Help – One time I was being bullied and I went to my teacher for help. This worked because the teacher took care of the problem and didn’t tell the bully that I was the one that told it. This made me feel good because the bullying stopped. Encourage students to read their response to their class and/or select one that illustrates the best example of following the principle and submit it to the office for a chance to win a prize. Encourage students to email their responses to info@staydriven.com to have their responses posted on our website
