“Raising Respectful Kids” Event with Mike Domitrz (October 28)

Students and parents have the opportunity to participate in a Health, Safety, and Well-Being education event next week.

On Monday, October 28, parents are invited to hear Mike Domitrz from the Center for Respect present “Raising Respectful Kids” at 5:15 – 6:45 p.m. in the Deming Theatre located in the Munnerlyn Center. Mike Domitrz works closely with students and schools across the country to produce national initiatives resulting in revolutionary change in America’s approach to dating and respect. Mike has been quoted in major publications such as The Wall Street Journal and been a featured expert on Dateline NBC’s “My Kid Would Never Do That” series. Parents will appreciate learning essential strategies and skills for helping their students demonstrate respectful behavior toward themselves and others.

On Tuesday, October 29, students will have grade level appropriate assemblies with Mike during the school day, where he will address 9 Daily Choices for Respect and 9 Daily Displays of Disrespect. Advisories will hold discussion on the subject matter and help students consider where they can make changes in how they interact with others.

Health, Safety, and Well-Being programs are intended to round out the emotional and spiritual growth of Episcopal students. ESJ is proud to be a school known for fostering young adults who thrive in areas of self development, even after graduation. The school is grateful that we have the resources to bring in the best professionals to aid us in developing our students this way. A cooperative spirit of enthusiastic participation in these events from parents and students helps better our community and strengthen our Episcopal family.
