VERO BEACH — All parents and children are welcome to attend the Parent Academy Workshop event entitled Bullying 101. The free dinner and program, offered by Connected 4 Kids, will be held at Highlands Elementary School on Tuesday, Nov. 19, from 5:30–7:30 p.m.

Bullying affects everyone: the bully, the bullied, and the bystander.

Children attending will participate in age appropriate breakout sessions while adults join an informative workshop discussing facts and myths about bullying; types of bullying; how we can work together to create safe, caring and respectful home, school, and community environments; and a feature screening followed by discussion of the award-winning film BULLY.

This presentation is part of a series of free workshops in which parents can learn to become an active and effective partner in their children’s education, network with other parents, and learn about community organizations that support children and families.

There will be a free dinner at 5:30 p.m. with breakout sessions at 6 p.m. for adults, youth K-2, 3rd-5th, and 6th-12th grades.

Upcoming workshops will include Parenting Teens: Why saying “no” is not enough, Jan. 30; Parenting Styles, March 3; and Successful Students: Developing Healthy Food & Fitness Habits, April 8.

This event is brought to the community by Connected 4 Kids Coalition of Indian River County, and sponsored in part by Tobacco Free Partnership of Indian River County, School District of Indian River County, and CASTLE – Teaching Safe Parenting.
