**************

A HERO is someone who does something special to HELP OTHERS. Every hero STARTS as a CHILD, and every Child can CHOOSE to become a Hero... Just like THIS one!

Neil was only two-years-old when his father took him to the National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio. That was all the way back in 1932, but even then, Neil knew he liked airplanes!

While he was still very young, he began doing his share of the family work by mowing the yard, weeding the garden, and washing clothes. When Neil and his parents weren’t working, his mother spent many hours reading to him. Neil loved books, and when he was in the first grade, he read 90 books!

Also, when was in the first grade, his father took him on his very first plane ride! And soon after that, Neil started building model airplanes. As he grew older, his models became bigger and better and more complicated. He also had a great interest in science and math and he started studying about stars and planets. He loved looking through a telescope at the night sky. When he was old enough, Neil worked hard to earn enough money for flying lessons. And on his 16th birthday, he got his pilot’s license.

Later Neil became a pilot for the United States Navy and after that, a test pilot for the Air Force. Then, he joined the space program, and the rest, as they say, is history—very important history! Because young Neil, Neil Armstrong worked hard and studied hard to prepare himself and because he made good choices along the way, he had the opportunity on July 20, 1969 to become the very first man ever to walk on the moon! He became a HERO!

That's what I know about the beginning of THIS Hero, and I know that YOU can become a Hero Too!

Dear Parents,

After years of development, trial, and revision, we are so excited to now share with you the most effective version yet of our Proactive Bully Prevention Program that has proven to "change the culture" at hundreds of campuses across America in profound ways. Research has shown the TCN MethodTM to be the single most effective school based Violence and Bully Prevention Intervention of its entire genre. We have hundreds of testimonials from educators describing the results they have gotten, and you can view many of these at www.TheCharacterNetwork.org/Testimonials

This program, The Beginning of a Famous HeroTM is used in conjunction with a companion program called Bully Alert!TM in schools played over the intercom during morning announcements twice or more each school week, and backed up by a common culture which reinforces the principles taught, at every turn, and incorporates the phrases of the academic language during any teachable moment.

These two sets of stories work together to convey a common academic language which says, “A bully is a person who hurts others on purpose (even if it’s just hurting their feelings) but a HERO is a person who HELPS others. So CHOOSE to be a HERO by HELPING instead of a bully by hurting.”

They also promote the concept of POSITIVE PERSONAL VISION, helping each student to realistically visualize his or her own "Future Self," and in doing so help relate consequences of actions and attitudes today (good or bad) to that future self.

It is the spaced repetition of these principles that makes the program effective. It is the 100% turn-key presentation that makes it easy!

This program takes VIRTUALLY NO TIME (only 4 minutes a week!) away from classroom instruction. But it also provides a common language across the entire campus when teachable moments occur!

The TCN Method has been extraordinarily successful in the past, in almost a thousand schools all across America, from Califo...
