ENGAGE is a research-based curriculum to teach grades 5-12 how to identify, prevent, and respond to bullying. It is designed to meet standard end-of-instruction objectives.
Bullying in schools has drawn international attention as incidents have become more frequent and aggressive. It's time to engage this problem from the ground up-addressing the negative attitudes and root character issues that foster anti-social behavior.
