Delaware · Grades 6-12 · Middle & High Schools
A school safety assembly in Delaware should leave students with more than a slogan. Jim Jordan gives grades 6-12 a sequence they can use the next day: notice what matters, find the courage to say something, and make sure the concern reaches the right person. That is Be Aware, Be Brave, Be Heard — a proactive framework built for a compact statewide school community where one clear framework can be reinforced by students, staff, and families.
Step 1
Students learn to notice warning signs without treating every unusual moment as an emergency: concerning behavior, online red flags, bullying or harassment patterns, changes in a friend's behavior, threats framed as jokes and situations that deserve a second look.
Step 2
Bravery is responsible action, not confrontation. Students may need to save a screenshot, step away from a risky situation, use an anonymous reporting option or tell a trusted adult even when speaking up feels socially uncomfortable.
Step 3
The goal is not simply to say something — it is to get useful information to someone who can respond. Students learn to separate facts from assumptions, identify trusted adults and reporting channels, and understand that immediate danger requires emergency help.
The memorable student message
See Something Say Something describes the larger prevention idea. Be Aware, Be Brave, Be Heard gives students the three actions Jim wants them to remember: notice the warning sign, find the courage to act safely and make sure the concern reaches a trusted adult who can help.
Grades 6-8 receive a lighter, highly participatory delivery without watering down the safety content. Situations involving familiar peer groups, school events, online conflict, and early help-seeking become the bridge to a bigger lesson for Delaware students: noticing a concern only helps when a responsible adult hears about it.
For grades 9-12 in Delaware, the conversation moves into student leadership, screenshots, harassment, and using the school reporting path before a situation spreads. Teenagers are treated as leaders. The emphasis is on judgment, evidence, urgency, bystander responsibility, and the difference between responsibly reporting a concern and simply reposting it.
Reporting is taught as a skill in Delaware. Students learn to say what they saw or heard, separate facts from assumptions, explain why the concern matters, and use the school's own process. Immediate danger requires emergency help; non-urgent concerns should move to the appropriate school adult or reporting channel.
Interactive, not fear-based
Magic is an attention tool, not a side show. Jim uses visual routines, student volunteers, whole-room participation, short videos and follow-up quizzes so Delaware students stay involved. Each interactive moment is tied back to Be Aware, Be Brave or Be Heard, helping the fun carry a serious prevention lesson.
Delaware administrators can use the assembly as a launch point for an existing reporting system. Before the program, the school can identify local pathways students should know. Afterward, discussion prompts and quizzes help bring Be Aware, Be Brave, Be Heard into advisory, homeroom, counseling or student-leadership settings.
The live event is the beginning. After Jim leaves, Delaware staff can bring the three-step message back through advisory questions, digital-citizenship reminders, counseling conversations, posters and quick quizzes so students hear the same language more than once.
