Primary Focus at Beal City
In September 2007, the Isabella County CHARACTER COUNTS! Coalition co-sponsored a full day “assembly” for Beal City elementary students. The group called Primary Focus performed four times for classroom groups as well as spending the day interacting with students in the hallways, cafeteria, and classrooms.

This was one of the best assemblies ever held at the school according to the teachers and students. The character messages delivered by Primary Focus were relevant to the lives of the students. The messages were presented through skits, songs, and dialogue as well as one-on-one interaction with the students. More information can be found on the program at http://www.primaryfocus.org
