Read this sample elementary-level message!If it makes your day better, imagine what it could do to improve the day of everyone in your school. Good morning, (name of school). This is (name of narrator) with a few words of wisdom. Think about this for a moment: What if everyone in the big, wide world was kind to one another? There would be no more bullying and no more mean-spirited teasing. Why? Because you can't bully someone with a kind heart and you can't be mean-spirited and kind at the same time. Now listen to these words from writer Henry James:
Each of us can bring a little more kindness into our world. So today ask yourself this: Who in the world — whether in my classroom or my family or across the globe — needs a little act of kindness? With something to think about, this is (name of narrator). Make it a great day . . . or not. The choice is yours. 
Start each morning with messages like this designed to create a more positive and effective school climate. Project Wisdom provides proven results with our simple three-step approach: campus, classroom, and educator. Select a well-respected staff member who can give a strong and heartfelt delivery and then broadcast one message each morning during announcements.

Put our proven three-step approach into practice at your school1) For the Campus — Online Library of Broadcast MessagesOur library of daily broadcast messages includes three series, each containing enough messages to broadcast for a typical school year. Here are two samples: Sample Morning AnnouncementGood morning, (name of school). This is (name of narrator) with a few words of wisdom. Each of you have something special inside that you can give to other people and even give to the world. Maybe you are really good at math. Maybe you have a special way of being helpful to others. Only you have that unique something to give. Sometimes a bully will tease you about those parts of yourself that are special and good. You shouldn’t change who you are because of the mean words of a bully. Listen to these words instead: "By being yourself, you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before.*" It’s important to be yourself. Don’t let the words of a bully stop you from doing and being your very best. Sometimes we all need a little help, though. Don’t be embarrassed or afraid to reach out to a parent, teacher, or school counselor to help deal with your feelings if you are the victim of a bully. You deserve the best. With something to think about, this is (name of narrator). Make it a great day ... or not. The choice is yours. Sample Morning AnnouncementGood morning, (name of school). This is (name of narrator) with a few words of wisdom. Take a moment to remember the last time you worked hard to do something. Maybe you worked hard on a writing assignment and received a good grade, maybe you worked hard to save money for something special, or maybe you worked hard cleaning your room. When you work hard at something and then see the results, all the hard work seems worth it. You feel good about yourself. Booker T. Washington, one of America's great teachers, believed strongly in the power of education and hard work. Here's what he says to us today: "Nothing ever comes to one that is worth having, except as a result of hard work." Today, work a little harder and move closer to what you want, then see if you feel better about yourself at the end of the day. With something to think about, this is (name of narrator). Make it a great day ... or not. The choice is yours. For more samples, including lesson plans and other materials, please visit our website. |

Create a more positive work environment for educators:Key findings from our 2013 third-party evaluation of the Project Wisdom Educator Resource Site 2.0 (ERS):
A one-year subscription provides every educator in your school access to our online library of lesson plans and more!You can boost academic achievement. "In the current climate of high-stakes testing, schools are hesitant to focus resources on anything that seems unrelated to raising test scores. This often leads to putting Character Education on the back burner. Schools need to understand that creating schools that are pressure cookers focused just on test scores is bad for students and educators, and the evidence suggests that good character education is good education and in fact raises state test scores.” - Marvin W. Berkowitz, Ph.d. Sanford N. McDonnell |
