Play

Kindergarten and First grade students in all 4 elementary schools were able to attend a wonderful play performance by the MNSU Theatre Department about bullying.  The play Shine is a musical about a new student in school and the bullies she encountered.  Something magical happened when kids in the group decided they didn’t want to be a part of this group of mean kids.  They lost the gray color of the bully and were able to become the bright color they were meant to be.  Shine helped students to understand what a bully is and demonstrated tools they can use when they face these same situations themselves.
