Bullying prevention assemblies for Minnesota elementary, middle and high schools
Minnesota’s school communities include the Twin Cities, regional centers such as Duluth and Rochester, agricultural towns and northern districts. Weather, cultural diversity, district size and distance all influence how a prevention program should be scheduled and communicated.
State-Specific Planning
Minnesota teams can connect the assembly with existing belonging and climate priorities while keeping expectations concrete. Younger students need simple recognition and help-seeking steps; teens need credible discussion of peer audiences, online behavior and social consequences.
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 Minnesota district or campus.

Programs Available
Choose one audience or build a coordinated day in which every group receives examples, pacing and participation suited to its role.
Grades PK-2
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 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 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 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
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
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
Advisory, student leadership, athletics and family communication can reinforce the program. Schools should listen for differences in how student groups experience belonging and make materials accessible to families using the community’s languages.
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
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
Minnesota travel can be grouped by Twin Cities, southeast, central, northwest or northeast routes. Winter conditions require flexible timing and a direct school contact.
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.
Travel costs and dates depend on the real route. No statewide flat travel claim or unverified local availability is presented on this page.
Ask About MN DatesPolicy and Local Procedures
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.

Thanks again for your inspirational presentation. The staff and students are still buzzing about it.
Thank you for coming to our schools! We received really good feedback from our students. My daughter, who is a junior at PC High School, came home that day and said she really enjoyed the presentation. She said Jim kept the students very interested and engaged. I have been able to apply what Jim presented to my elementary students in my bullying lessons in the classrooms. That has been very helpful! Thank you again! My principal would like you to come back next year.
