Best-Selling Author Coming to Vernonia School District
to Address Hot Topic of Emotional Bullying
On August 31, award-winning
children’s author and advocate Trudy
Ludwig will be visiting the Vernonia
School District to give her nationally
acclaimed presentations on relational
aggression (emotional bullying among
friends).
On Wednesday August 31,
Ludwig will be providing a district-
wide staff workshop, “Creating a Safer
Social and Learning Environment in
Schools”. On Thursday, September 8,
Ludwig will be visiting Washington
Grade School to present to students in
Kindergarten through fifth grade. Later
that evening, Ludwig will provide a
parent presentation, “Understanding
Our Kids’ Social World: Friendships,
Cliques & Power Plays.” This evening
event will take place from 6:30 – 8
PM at Washington Grade School.
Refreshments and child care will be
provided
“We’re excited to have Trudy
share her books and expertise with our
school communities about this very
important issue,” says DeAnna Pearl,
DFC Grant Director for Vernonia
Prevention Coalition. “We want to stay
on top of the latest research and learn
about new resources and tools to help
us continue to provide safer social and
learning environments for the students.”
Ludwig has received rave
reviews around the country for her
passion and compassion in addressing
bullying and friendship issues. She first
became aware of relational aggression
when her own daughter became a target.
The author and her book, My Secret
Bully, were featured on ABC’s “GOOD
MORNING AMERICA” and on PBS’s
nationally syndicated show “KEEPING
KIDS HEALTHY.” Her subsequent
releases, Just Kidding, Sorry!, Trouble
Talk®, Too Perfect, Confessions of a
Former Bully, and Better Than You, have
also received high praise from leading
experts, educators, and organizations
nationwide.
Ludwig presents at schools and
conferences throughout the US to raise
awareness of the growing problem of
emotional bullying among children and
what adults can do to help. She also
collaborates with leading anti-bullying
experts and key organizations around
the country. For more information
