COPE24 visits Greenfield Central High School

Rene Howitt presented COPE24 to FACS educators Nov. 9th, at Greenfield Central High School in Greenfield, IN.

We don’t include every school Rene speaks at on these pages but wanted to give a special shout out to Greenfield Central HS in Indiana. Their class was assigned to read “Whose Best Interest”, Rene’s first book. A student contacted Rene directly, after reading the book, and asked if she would consider coming to their school to speak in their parenting classes. The work of COPE24 targets our HS students so the teacher and Rene made that happen. Rene says ” when a student cares so much that they would take their time to reach out I just had to try and make that happen. It won’t always be possible but this time it was. My thanks to the students and teacher at Greenfield Central  HS.”

What does the program include?

We’ve taken 10 very common frustrating parenting situations and put them into a program, so that we can begin discussing with our youth the realities of parenting. This program includes:

  1. Teacher/Instructors manual meeting all national curriculum standards
  2. Manual also includes student worksheets and pre/post student surveys
  3. 10 parenting scenario videos. Each parenting video situation is approx. five-minutes in length. There is one video situation for each of the 10 chapters of this program

The teacher/instructor would begin the class by showing one video. Each scenario will escalate to the point of abuse, neglect, or dysfunction. The video is then stopped and the teacher/instructor can turn to class asking….what went wrong? What other choices did the parents have? What will you do?
