America’s Anti-Bullying School Speaker

HI School Programs

Hawaii Anti-Bullying School Programs with Island-Specific Planning

Bullying prevention assemblies for Hawaii elementary, middle and high schools

Hawaii’s statewide school system serves communities across Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi Island, Maui, Kauaʻi, Molokaʻi and Lānaʻi. Island travel, local culture, multi-generational relationships and differences between large urban campuses and small communities all matter when planning an outside program.

State-Specific Planning

Building the right anti-bullying program for Hawaii

Hawaii schools should explain local expectations, pronunciation, grade groupings and community context before the visit. The program can emphasize respect, belonging, safe bystander action and trusted adult support without assuming that mainland examples automatically fit island life.

Jim Jordan’s programs are organized by developmental stage rather than delivered as one generic speech. The goal is to give students language they can understand, give bystanders several safe choices and help every audience connect the program with the trusted adults already available in its own school.

District, charter, independent, Christian and Catholic schools can ask about student assemblies, educator training and parent presentations. The booking conversation establishes what fits the school; this page does not imply a previous partnership with any named Hawaii district or campus.

Programs Available

Age-appropriate anti-bullying options for Hawaii schools

Choose one audience or build a coordinated day in which every group receives examples, pacing and participation suited to its role.

Grades PK-2

Primary Anti-Bullying Assembly

An action-packed, age-appropriate anti-bullying assembly built for pre-K through second grade. Magic, storytelling and audience participation teach young learners how to be a good friend, how to speak up, and how to ask a trusted adult for help.

Grades 3-5

Intermediate Anti-Bullying Assembly

Intermediate students learn to recognize the different forms of bullying, to intervene safely as bystanders, and to report without fear. The program shifts attention toward the majority of students who want bullying to stop and shows them practical ways to help.

Grades 6-8

Middle School Anti-Bullying Assembly

Middle school is where social dynamics get complicated and where bullying moves onto phones. This assembly meets students where they are, with a high-energy presentation on cyberbullying, digital citizenship and the courage to intervene.

Grades 9-12

High School Anti-Bullying Assembly

High school students do not need to be told bullying is wrong. They need a reason to act. This assembly challenges students to own the culture of their campus and gives them practical ways to influence it.

Faculty & Staff

Anti-Bullying Teacher Training

Teachers are central to a safe school culture. This professional development session defines staff roles in bullying prevention, explores response and investigation practices, and discusses how to support students and work constructively with families.

Parents & Families

Parent Anti-Bullying Presentation

An evening keynote for parents and guardians covering bullying prevention, cyberbullying, digital safety, communication at home, and warning signs that may warrant a closer conversation. Parents leave with practical next steps rather than generic advice.

After the Assembly

Keeping the message active in Hawaii schools

Schools can invite students to translate the assembly’s main ideas into locally meaningful actions through advisory, leadership and family conversation. Privacy matters in close communities, so reports should move to trained adults rather than becoming peer discussion.

Effective follow-up does not require students to disclose personal experiences in front of classmates. Schools can use fictional scenarios, private reflection and clear adult referral options. When a concern involves safety or an individual student, it belongs with trained school personnel following school and district procedures.

Before the Assembly

Preparing Hawaii educators and families

Staff should know the purpose of the program, the grade-specific language students will hear and the support contacts available after the event. Families benefit from a concise explanation of the topic, the school’s reporting route and a few questions they can use at home.

The school can also identify accessibility, language, sensory, mobility and schedule needs during planning. Those details help the program reach more students without putting individual children or their experiences on display.

Tour Routing

Scheduling an anti-bullying speaker in Hawaii

Hawaii bookings require early coordination of inter-island flights, baggage, ground transportation and schedule buffers. Grouping compatible schools on one island can make a visit more practical.

Provide the full campus address, preferred date range, grade levels, expected attendance and whether the request includes parent anti-bullying presentation, educator training, a parent evening or several student sessions. The office can then respond with actual availability and pricing.

A clear request gets a useful answer

Travel costs and dates depend on the real route. No statewide flat travel claim or unverified local availability is presented on this page.

Policy and Local Procedures

Connect the presentation with current Hawaii and district guidance

An educational assembly is not legal advice and does not replace school policy, investigation procedures or required student supports. Before the event, the planning team should review current state guidance, district rules and the school’s reporting process. The federal StopBullying.gov state laws and policies directory is a useful starting point for locating current official information.

I will definitely recommend this presentation to other schools. Thank you for exceeding our expectations and bringing our staff and students so many smiles and important lessons today.
Leslie McDermetTeacher
The students and teachers truly enjoyed it. I could tell because there was lots of positive conversation long after the program had ended. A few students even came to me and some teachers to let us know of a few incidents that were going on.

Hawaii FAQ

Questions about booking an anti-bullying school speaker in Hawaii

What makes an anti-bullying assembly useful for Hawaii schools?

The program should fit the school's students, schedule and support system instead of relying on a state-name substitution. For Hawaii, planning begins with the local setting described on this page, separates developmental grade bands and connects every student message to the school's actual trusted-adult and reporting process.

Can Jim Jordan present in Honolulu and other parts of Hawaii?

Availability is based on the requested date and a workable travel route. Schools in Honolulu, Kauaʻi and the other communities listed here can contact the office with their exact city, grade levels, audience size and preferred date range. The office will confirm what is possible rather than making an unverified availability claim.

Should a Hawaii school use one presentation for every grade?

Usually, separate age groups create a stronger learning experience. Primary students need simple recognition and help-seeking practice, intermediate students can work with peer examples, and middle or high school students need credible discussion of social pressure, online audiences and safe bystander choices.

How should Hawaii educators prepare before the speaker arrives?

Staff should review the school's own definitions, reporting routes, support contacts and response responsibilities. They should also know the language students will hear during the program. This preparation helps adults respond consistently if students ask questions or seek help afterward.

What should happen after an anti-bullying assembly in Hawaii?

Use the locally focused follow-through plan on this page. Brief classroom prompts, repeated reporting reminders, family communication and a later staff review can keep the message active. The assembly creates shared language and momentum; it does not replace the school's ongoing prevention and response work.
