Why California Schools Are Choosing Jim Jordan
Bullying affects every district in California — from the nation's largest urban systems in Los Angeles and San Diego to small rural communities in the Central Valley and North Coast. Leaders want a program that goes far beyond awareness and drives lasting change.
Jim Jordan is recognized as the USA's #1 anti-bullying school assembly speaker. With more than 17 years of experience and hundreds of thousands of students served, his interactive model turns passive bystanders into confident upstanders — students who know exactly what to do when they witness or experience bullying.
Jim's sessions are fast, practical, and memorable. He gives students simple steps they can use the same day. Teachers receive follow-up tools that fit real classrooms. Administrators get a scalable plan that is easy to run and repeat year after year.
A Three-Part System That Creates Lasting Change in California Schools
Jim's proactive model is built around three core competencies that students can put into practice the same day as the assembly — no complex rules, no jargon, just clear and immediately useful tools.
1. Recognize Bullying
- Identify bullying behaviors quickly and clearly
- Understand physical, verbal, social, and cyberbullying
- Spot warning signs that require adult intervention
- Tell the difference between bullying and conflict
2. Report Safely
- Know exactly who to tell and when
- Use anonymous reporting options where permitted
- Build confidence to speak up without fear
- Understand when to loop in parents or staff
3. Act as an Upstander
- Support targets and protect peers actively
- Disrupt harmful situations using school rules
- Practice upstander scripts on stage during the assembly
- Seek adult help before situations escalate
