America’s Anti-Bullying School Speaker

MN School Programs

Minnesota Anti-Bullying School Programs for Metro and Greater Minnesota

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

Building the right anti-bullying program for Minnesota

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

Age-appropriate anti-bullying options for Minnesota 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 Minnesota schools

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

Preparing Minnesota 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 Minnesota

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.

Policy and Local Procedures

Connect the presentation with current Minnesota 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. Review the federal StopBullying.gov summary of Minnesota anti-bullying laws and policies as a sourced starting point, then confirm current requirements with the state education agency and the district before the program.

Minnesota FAQ

Questions about booking an anti-bullying school speaker in Minnesota

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

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. The school should connect each student message to its own trusted-adult and reporting process.

Can Jim Jordan present in Minneapolis-Saint Paul and other parts of Minnesota?

Minnesota travel can be grouped by Twin Cities, southeast, central, northwest or northeast routes. Winter conditions require flexible timing and a direct school contact. Schools in Minneapolis-Saint Paul, Northwest Minnesota and the other communities listed here should send their exact city, grade levels, audience size and preferred date range so the office can confirm what is possible.

Should a Minnesota school use one presentation for every grade?

Usually, separate age groups create a stronger learning experience. One useful Minnesota planning priority is to prepare winter flexibility. Primary, intermediate, middle and high school students also need different examples and participation choices.

How should Minnesota educators prepare before the speaker arrives?

Staff should review the school's own definitions, reporting routes, support contacts and response responsibilities. For this Minnesota plan, the team should also plan multilingual outreach and brief adults on the language students will hear.

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

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. The assembly can create shared language and momentum, but it does not replace the school's ongoing prevention and response work.
