Heroes Welcome at Woodland SchoolWow! We were given such a terrific surprise at Woodland School in Warren, New Jersey this afternoon. All of the teachers, students, staff, and even the principal dressed in their favorite super hero T-shirts, Capes, and even head bands.  After our assembly, the school mascot, Woody, ran through the gymnasium wearing his red Cape! What a special treat!

The students, teachers, and staff at Woodland School definitely know how to Wear The Cape! They created a bulletin board in the main hallway with our Cape, which they plan to fill with pictures of students who show kindness. Children cheered as they were leaving the assembly, and promised to Wear the Cape and promote kindness. Thank you, Woodland!

Our resident character expert, Dr. Philip Brown is the founder and president of the New Jersey Alliance for Social, Emotional and Character Development. For the past ……years, the NJASEC has held a conference at Rider University in Lawrencville, NJ, for anti-bullying coordinators, teachers, administrators, guidance counselors, and parents.

This year, Wear the Cape was chosen to present at the NJASEC conference. It was a privilege to share our mission with our fellow educators.  Those who attended our break out session, “Practical Anti-bullying Strategies” were delighted to learn about the Cape, our “Better Than That™ tagline, and our Hero Strategies directly from our Cape Kids, through our assembly videos.

We received such wonderful feedback from those who in attendance. They said our assembly videos were captivating and motivating. When discussing our Hero Strategies, we were told they were practical and effective.
