“Just a brief note of thanks for the wonderful assemblies and workshops presented to our students, staff, and parents last week. I was so pleased with the launch of the Bucketfillers For Life program at Lake Grove. I loved to see the students laughing, singing, and joining in on the fun. I hope this is just the beginning of a lasting partnership!’”

"My 6th grader came home today and wrote the most beautiful examples of why he loves and respects his little brother. I’m not sure what kind of event you had at school today, January 28, 2009, but this truly is the most amazing experience we had at home in a long time. I just wanted to take a moment to say that it was great. My boys fight like siblings do, some days more than others. Today (my son) wrote about (his brother). (His brother) listened with tears in his eyes, sensitive to the fact that his big brother really does love him. I have to say that this is one of the most memorable events experienced at Crissman. Totally awesome! Thanks."

"We are so pleased with the bucketfiller programs! Since beginning with bucketfilling, the referrals of students to my office for bullying behavior has decreased by about 40%. I expect that improvement to continue!"
