Grade 6 Anti-Bullying Assembly
Posted on 04/05/2024
On April 4th, Grant School hosted an assembly for all 6th graders in the district. The assembly was presented by D. West, who is a former professional football player, sports analyst, and motivational speaker. As a child growing up in New Jersey, he shared many of the struggles he experienced including bullying, poverty, family dynamics, and the importance of school. The students were locked into D. West's messages about lifting each other up rather than pushing them down and how each of us always has the opportunity to self persevere in times of struggle. Our 6th graders were empowered to "Never Give Up" and live the best life they can for all.
