Violence NOT Allowed: Stopping School Violence Starts with You!

  • Written from a peer-to-peer perspective

  • Featured on NBC’s Today Show and TeenPeople

  • Focuses on non-physical and physical violence

"We made the Four Cornerstones for Ending School Violence into a wall chart and displayed it in front of our classroom. The students answered the book’s action questions in their journals and to our excitement they all wanted to share! It was great watching them make the connection between things like teasing or 'playing around' and school violence. Keep up your great work!"
