As principal, I recommend this performance to elementary, middle, and even high schoolers. The Hollands are great."

Meadows of Dan Elementary School,
Meadows of Dan, VA
"Sticks & Stones is a very effective, simple way to get the bullying message out there for the kids to understand. It is educational and memorable."
Derina Scott, Guidance Counselor,
PATRICK COUNTY SCHOOLS, VA
