Girls Inc. help Avon East Students with Strangers

Through the Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration (CILC), a great organization called Girls Inc presented a program about strangers for 1st grade students at Avon East Elementary School. The students discussed the dangers of strangers and techniques of avoidance, getting away and getting help.

The program was done in a multipoint with a school in Indiana. The ladies from Girls Inc were interactive and provided the students with information that we hope that our students will never need. This was a fantastic program that I would recommend to other schools. We had great feed back from our participating teachers and a great response from the staff at Avon East that we plan to contact the organization for additional programs.

Thanks again Girls Inc!!
