The students sat for the forty-five minute program on the dining room floor very taken by the actors and their very important message. They loved the audience participation and were very excited about watching their peers “act” characters in a poignant vignette. The grade 3-5 program was appropriately geared to a more mature and active audience. These students also were very engaged and interactive with the actors. As a school, the program left us with a very important message, which we continue to discuss at our weekly community meeting as well as the individual classroom level. Bullying is a very real and very scary social issue in our city. We feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to have the Power of One program presented at a particularly perfect time."

Recently our school had the Power of One production come to us in Fort Collins, CO. The actors were Emery and Gina out of Denver. I just wanted to say what a fabulous job they did presenting. Not only was the information completely pertinent, but the audience participation was just enough to keep everyone interested without losing them. Emery & Gina were wonderful in how they engaged the students as well as how they managed them as well, which can always be a challenge. I will recommend this presentation to other schools as I thought it tapped into our school beliefs perfectly!

Thank you so much for making this program available to our students! ... I also have some hand written stories by first graders that I would love to share with you.

After the show our teachers open discussions with their students about bullying in order to get their input and to give everyone a chance
to talk about things they had experienced. Teachers also talked about things that happen to them as children, and this has
brought all of us closer together.

Our children and staff have all signed the pledge board and we have included some mirrors around the school with the" Power of One" slogan attached. What was especially effective was that the actors were able to incorporate some suggestion I had made to them ahead of the show. For example, we are a rights-respecting school, so the actors worked into the performance articles explaining the safety rights and responsibilities for staff and students. The actors also reminded students to tell their parents what they learned that day, in keeping with our school philosophy that children should always take their learning home. We really enoyed the Power of One and found it helpful and informative. The Power of One was a wonderful experience!"

"We had a grade 5 student come into the office after the Power of One was at our school. He explained how another two boys had given him an "extreme warning" that he couldn't be in their "company staff list" if he remained friends with a third boy.
When we pointed out to him that this was an example of "exclusion bullying," which we had learned about as part of the Power of One presentation, he said "oh yeah, you're right! That's not OK, they are not being good friends".
We spoke with the two boys who had made the warning and we used the phrase "you have the power of one to change the outcome of this situation" and the recognition in their eyes of how their actions had affected another, and what they needed to do, made it clear that the Power of One had made an impact."

We were extremely pleased with the presentation. It was relevant, geared for our children, very timely in September and it meshed well with the WITS program (our anti-bullying program).
The performers did an excellent job of reviewing the ideas throughout the performance and even the youngest child could understand the concepts presented.
We love that we have been left with a poster which we will mount in the hallway.
We are also going to install a mirror so that the children remember that they are the ‘Power of One’ each time that they walk by.
