Date: Wednesday, January 24, 2024

Time: 5:00 - 6:30 PM

Description: Join other Alma families to hear exciting updates related to results from our most recent Alma Family survey, participate in Q&A session with your campus principal, and listen to a presentation from Bridgewater State's MARC Program about:

Handling bullying and cyberbullying effectively with your child's school
Managing children's and teen's screen time and technology use
Understanding topics like social media use and sending pictures
Encouraging healthy social relationships

MARC's bullying & cyberbullying prevention programs for K-12 students are unique in that most services are delivered by trained graduate and undergraduate students from Bridgewater State University, in a high-status peer model. MARC offers its anti-bullying programs to all K-12 schools in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

MARC is a teaching Center, meaning that we instruct graduate and advanced undergraduate students at Bridgewater State University. These students are powerful tools in any bullying prevention effort, as they are high-status peers and role models to teenage children. They are trained, among other things, to facilitate with groups of teenagers on changing their school climate. They also deliver assembly programs.
