A Clown Visits Dallas Elementary

A real clown walked the halls of Dallas Elementary School today. No really, it was a REAL clown!

Ronald McDonald with 3rd grader Kylah Johnson
Ronald McDonald stopped by to present his program "A Friendship Adventure with Ronald McDonald" to the entire student body. The program focuses on how to discourage bullying and on the importance of friendship, cooperation, individual responsibility and active play of the mind and body. It included music, magic, lots of audience participation and a timely message for both students and teachers.

More than 160,000 children skip school every day because of bullying and peer pressure. "Friendship Adventure" was created to reinforce Ronald's position as a friend who is concerned about their well-being and to offer children simple and effective ways to discourage negative behavior toward themselves and others.
