The All Stars program life skills based curriculum will be implemented with students in the middle schools (ages 11-14). It is a 14 lesson program that seeks to target and reduce risky behaviors while increasing positive social skills and beliefs. Students work in small groups during the regular school day. No less than 6 groups of students will run per school year, reaching at least 180 students and families. Material is sent home for parents and phone contact is established and maintained for support. Additional parent groups may also be offered. The "All Stars" program is a science-based curriculum that was developed and is maintained by Tanglewood Research.
All Stars addresses five topics important to preventing high-risk behaviors: |
- Developing positive ideals that don't fit with high-risk behavior
- Creating a belief in conventional norms
- Building strong personal commitments
- Bonding with school, pro-social institutions, and family
- Increasing positive parental attentiveness
