Corinth CSD students recognize Bullying Prevention Month with Sweethearts & Heroes
on 10/9-10/10 this week!
October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and local students will recognize it with an amazing duo of superheroes without capes, learning how to activate compassion, empathy and HOPE in their classrooms — and beyond.
Sweethearts & Heroes will return to the Corinth Central School District (CSD) on Wednesday, Oct. 9 and Thursday, Oct. 10.
Sweethearts & Heroes aims to prevent hopelessness, bullying and suicide by providing dynamic, inspiring content that centers on the human interaction skills necessary for schools and other organizations to change all aspects of their culture — skills such as empathy, compassion and teamwork.
Sweethearts & Heroes offers a profound, engaging signature presentation that calls for HOPE(Hold On, Possibilities Exist), Empathy and Action; Circle , which is built on the ancient ritual of communicating in a circle to build compassion and empathy.
Sweethearts & Heroes’ central team of traveling presenters includes: Tom Murphy, Director and Founder of St. Albans, VT; Ret. U.S. Army Sgt. Rick Yarosh, a HOPE expert, Purple Heart recipient and motivational speaker from New York who was burned severely while serving in Iraq; and Pat Fish, BRAVE Program Director & Circle Specialist, also of New York.
