"...Your program has been effective in educating our students on the many physical and emotional effects of premarital sexual activity. I know from the student comments that the students perceived value from the time you and your trainers spent in the classrooms. And it seems our students have chosen to modify their current and future behaviors as a result of being a part of the Reality Check program." - School Board Member"...Based on the attitudinal-survey information that I have received from those students who have participated in the Reality Check program, I am now even more convinced of the value of the program. I look forward to assisting with the implementation of Reality Check in all the middle schools and junior high schools... As a result of that program, our students should be better prepared to make quality judgments relative to their health and sexual decision-making." - Superintendent"I am always somewhat reserved when outside organizations come to my campus to present to students in an assemby or a classroom setting... I was not only relieved by the presentations of the Reality Check, Inc. presenters, but I was also pleased, encouraged, and amazed with the presentations. Pleased by the content and presentation of the material and the matter-of-fact, research-based approached to it; encouraged by the response of the students who took the presentations seriously and asked thoughtful questions; and amazed at the professionalism and preparedness of the presenters who not only did an outstanding job of presenting difficult material, but also maintained excellent control of the classroom." - Principal"Reality Check's program was very beneficial to the high-risk students served at the R.E.A.P. academy this year. - Principal"...The Prevention Intervention Program was a total success for the students . . . as evidenced by the minimal drop-out rate of our students and the zero pregnancy rate of our girls. I could not be happier with the program's success with our students." - District Latino Counselor
I believe this program is great for students and should be put in every school system.Instructor was knowledgeable of the subject and taught with thoroughness. Great material.

Students have learned to evaluate unhealthy relationships...and post pone continued behaviors..." - 2007 National PE Teacher of the Year."She did a wonderful job teaching the 6th grade "Reality Check" program. I would love to have her come back next year to teach our students." - Susan Akins (McNair Middle School) "She was very knowledgeable. She did an excellent job with her presentations and discussions. All of my students were engaged and participated every day. For such a touchy subject to cover and teach, she did an excellent job presenting it and keeping it professional. She was well prepared and very organized! Great job!" - Lingle Middle School "Outstanding job! She covered all lesson objectives. The content was understandable and very well organized. She had total knowledge of the subject area and presented material in a way the students should remember that abstinence is the only way to remain healthy sexually. Great job!" - John King (Pea Ridge High School) "This was the first time that I had been involved in the Reality Check program and I was very impressed. The topics were handled well with fun activities. The presenter did a wonderful job and had a great rapport with the students. This program definitely fills an important need in our community. Thank you so much! If there is any way that I can be of help to your program, let me know." - Susan Gabbard (Helen Tyson Middle School)"Great job! Wish our entire student body could have been involved! Jimmy has a way to reach the kids that a regular classroom teacher cannot. The kids learned a lot and felt very comfortable with Jimmy." - Health/P.E. Department Head"On my evaluation that I give at the end of the year, the students listed Reality Check as one of their favorite things we did! I will probably be asking you back for next year again!" - Teacher"I especially thought the visual aids and analagies were very effective and made a hard subject fun and easy to understand." - Art Teacher"This is my sixth year of having Reality Check come into the classroom here at Southwest. I completely believe in what is being taught, how it's being taught, and who is teaching abstinence. They have been truthful, honest, and professional in everything they do. I personally believe this program is instrumental in saving young peoples lives. They reach students who are crossing that threshold and help them make responsible decisions. In my opinion Reality Check bridges a gap in our society that needs to be bridged and is not being bridged in the home. They do a tremendous job and I will continue to welcome them into my classroom anytime they want." - Health Teacher"The programs approach and explanations were very good. The only negative part was squeezing the eight day course into five days. The program was great, but had we used the full eight days the questions would have gotten better and the kids would have opened up more." - 9th grade Health Teacher"The games and illustrations are the most powerful and great. The students liked them. They need the movement. They will remember these examples because they hit on all learning styles; auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners." - Health/P.E. Teacher"I have had Reality Check in my classroom for the last several years. Their presenters are professional and always present current, and factual, health information to the students. The information that they present is so important to the lives of our young adults who are struggling with so many issues...As an educator, I have seen the immediate results and value of this program personally." - Workforce and Health Teacher"Your presentation on abstinence and sexually transmitted diseases were absolutely fantastic! Your demonstrations were unique and definitely made lasting impressions. " - Health Teacher"The information the students are receiving from Reality Check helps students in every aspect of their lives...Abstinence is the only way to remain sexually healthy.The instructors from Reality Check have all been outstanding and present their material in a way that the students can relate. The instructors are well organized, understandable, and presented the material in a tasteful manner. I highly recommend Reality Check, Inc..." - High School Health Instructor"This has revolutionized my marriage. It has made me look at relationships differently." - Teacher"I would just like you to know that the instructors and instruction this past week and a half from Reality Check has had a positive response from the students and fellow teachers. I have personally enjoyed listening to the message once again and I feel that the information about a safer lifestyle towards health with correct knowledge of STD's and sexual practices is invaluable to these 9th grade students. Sometimes this classroom experience with Reality Check is the only time they gain this knowledge." - 9th Grade Health Instructor"I think that every adult should go through this program as well as students. This program is life changing no matter your age..." - Teacher"Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your program, 'Reality Check', and how effective your presenters are. The kids all enjoyed having a 'change of pace' and responded well to the hands-on experiments as well as the work in the booklets. Almost all of them were really engaged in all the discussions and took is seriously. I know that you have the stats to show that abstinence really does make a difference in reducing teen pregnancy and STD's. Teaching abstinence and goal setting is part of our state health frameworks, so your curriculum is a perfect fit for us. - High School Health Instructor"This is the type of program I want available for my children when they reach middle school. Please keep up the good work." - Parent/ Teacher"Reality Check, Inc. is an incredible program. The first time I heard anything about it was a year ago. I sat in on a parent meeting. I was blown away. The information was valid and credible, the presentation was clear and concise, and I learned things I didn't even know about. My daughter was in the 6th grade at the time and I could not wait for her to hear this presentation...I fully support this program and the message it is sending to our youth. I am a 5th grade school teachers, and I can tell you that unfortunately, most parents are not presenting their children with the facts or the truth about sex and STDs...This program is one of the most positive forces in our schools..." - Harrison Teacher/Parent "This program has been a valuable asset to the Bentonville High School Health Department for the past two years that I have taught. Reality Check has a great presentation that really hits home for this kids. The message and information they provide is so valuble for teenagers to hear today. The information that is given about STD's is always the most up to date and accurate...I can't explain the impact that this program has with the kids and the comfort it gives them when their values are reaffirmed...This program has an unbelievable impact on the kids and provides great leadership for them to follow. The message that Reality Check delivers to these students is the highlight of the semester. The kids look forward to them coming everyday because they are interested and want to learn. Reality Check delivers a positive message that makes a difference." - Health Teacher"This incredible community based program has filled a huge gap with the students attending Crossroads Alternative School. The amazing impact of Reality Check, Inc. has positively enhanced and served hundreds of under privileged students over the last four years at my school...I personally attend every Reality Check class taught at our school and have witnessed true transformations within the students after going through the powerful lessons taught by Mrs. Beth Bryant.This is the first program that I have ever witnessed that truly teaches students how to make informed healthy decisions about their physical, emotional, and psychological futures...The minute someone hears the word "abstinent", they freak out and take it the wrong way, throwing in the towel and say, "high school kids won't listen to that message and they will have sex anyway." I am in the trenches with kids everyday and that is not the conversation I hear from my students after taking the Reality Check, Inc. classes. My students are usually very concerned and worried because they have not heard this important information and feel ripped off that they are now 14-18 and learning about great strategies that will help young teens make better choices, select stronger friends, and screen out future poor dating partners. I have seen many teens turn their lives around...Another comment I frequently hear from my students after the Reality Check, Inc. classes is, 'why did I not know about all the risks and deadly STD's out there in the teen sex world?' 'Why is no one on TV talking about the true risks of teen sex besides pregnancy?'..." - Adventure Physical Education Specialist"She does an amazing job of teaching students about making healthy sexual choices. She keeps students focused and on tasks. She is a great role model and spokesperson for Reality Check."- Brian Anderson (Kirksey Middle School) "Barb had a good rapport with the students. She created a comfortable environment that the students felt free to participate in discussions and activities." - Ashton Thurman (Kirksey Middle School) "She does an excellent job of catching the students attention and keeping it. She did a great job of modifying the program for the group of students with various disabilities. She has the ability to quickly build a rapport with the students that carries throughout the week. I've been in several classes of Reality Check, and I'm so impressed with her teaching. She is one of the best." - Kelly Pearce (Kirksey Middle School) "She did an awesome job with our students. She presented the information in a manner in which it was fun for the students yet if captured their attention and they learned from it. We would love to have her again next semester!! She is an extremely sweet person! - Pam Ben (Tucker Middle School)
