Educators say Second Step is reducing violence

Second Step,

which is taught as character education curriculum in the elementary schools,

is 75 percent funded by the Children's Trust.

"Buy in

for Second Step has been wonderful," said Spangler. "It is my

hope that more middle schools will hop on board because this is a wonderful

program. If we can diminish discipline problems in the classroom, we will

have more time for academics."
