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!

When young Johnny Schneider was in school, he was overweight, and the bullies would tease him and play mean tricks on him. But through it all, Johnny knew he wanted to grow up to be somebody special. He started acting on stage when he was only eight years old, and he worked hard to be the best actor he could possibly be. Not long after that, he learned how to play the guitar. As a teenager, he learned a lot about professional race car driving, but many of the older kids were still being mean to him. One day, Johnny found... a hundred dollar bill! He tried to turn it in, but he was told there was no way to know who had lost it. So Johnny knew this was his chance to change things.

He got a membership to a health club and started working out every day until he was strong and healthy. He was no longer overweight! Then, only a short time later when he was 18 years old, another big chance came his way. He tried out for the part of Bo Duke in a brand new television show called The Dukes of Hazzard. And you know what? He got the part! Later, he was hired to be an actor in a lot of movies and other television shows.

But all along, John knew there had to be more important things in life. One day, he and his friend, Marie Osmond, worked very hard together and started the Children’s Miracle Network, an organization that today has helped over 17 million kids! Yes, that little Johnny Schneider, who was picked on a lot when he was a child, grew up to be John Schneider the television and movie star who still works very hard to help other people in a lot of very special ways. He grew up to be... a HERO!

Stay tuned for a very special message from John Schneider Himself!

That's what I know about the beginning of This Hero, and I know that YOU Can Be a Hero TOO!

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 an...
