Days of Respect

Organizing a School-Wide Violence Prevention Program

Days of Respect offers specific strategies for creating a multiday schoolwide event that brings together young people, teachers, parents, administrators, and the community to build respect, promote integrity, and stop the violence. Twenty-one reproducible handouts facilitate all phases of the event: presenting the idea to parents and administrators, conducting planning meetings, staging the event, and establishing ongoing campaigns to reduce violence. This book is the winner of the California School Board Association’s Award of Excellence.
