=Welcome to the planning Wiki for the 2009 STOP Convention =

**The purpose of this site is to facilitate communication between schools who will be presenting at this year's convention. **


 We realize that there is some crossover in these areas, but thought it best to center skits around one or two of these themes as they are best illustrated in our individual schools. The idea being to focus on SOLUTION and giving students tools to deal with problems and issues brought up in the skits.
 * At the meeting on September 9th, representatives from Shaler, North Allegheny and Hampton were present. We discussed centering skits around the following themes:**
 * PERCEPTION and PERSPECTIVE and the need to "Mix it up" to break through the school social facade
 * Developing UNDERSTANDING and COMPASSION for differences
 * Following your CONSCIENCE and doing the right thing in difficult situations
 * Accepting and modeling RESPONSIBILITY for self, school and community
 * Making choices with INTEGRITY and staying true to yourself
 * The importance of nurturing a GLOBAL AWARENESS




In order to avoid repetition among the district skits, please update your school's link with a paragraph synopsis of your idea by SEPTEMBER 18th.
