Sing for Change
Synopsis
Students at Blackwood’s Loring Flemming Elementary School are using their voices to educate people about bullying, respect, and self-esteem. More than 100 students participate in a concert in which they sing songs such as Aretha Franklin’s “Respect” and a kid-friendly version of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way.” Music teacher Erica Guillama was motivated to incorporate character education and bullying awareness into her music classes after learning that children as young as 11 years old were taking their own lives as a result of bullying.
