Engage Curriculum

ENGAGE is a research-based curriculum to teach grades 5-12 how to identify, prevent, and respond to bullying. It is designed to meet standard end-of-instruction objectives.

Bullying in schools has drawn international attention as incidents have become more frequent and aggressive. It’s time to engage this problem from the ground up—addressing the negative attitudes and root character issues that foster anti-social behavior. Together we can address bullying from the inside out and create a school culture of respect.

  • Engage the bullies.
  • Engage the victims.
  • Engage the bystanders.
  • Engage the teachers.
  • Engage the administrators.
  • Engage the parents.
