Hicksville Students Get Antibullying Lesson

The lesson helped students continue to develop into model citizens both in and out of the classroom.

As part of its ongoing character education, East Street Elementary School in the Hicksville Public School District hosted assembly program Jedlie’s Magic Circus to teach students about the importance of becoming anti-bullies and exhibiting compassion. In an interactive and engaging presentation, Jedlie spoke to students about empathy and how being thankful for nonmaterial elements in life can positively change one’s overall perspective. The program served as a fun and informative way to help students continue developing into model citizens both in and out of the classroom.
