Confronting Dating Violence.
McNulty, Raymond J.; Heller, Daniel A.; Binet, Tracy
Educational Leadership, v55 n2 p26-28 Oct 1997

Brattleboro (Vermont) Union High School went beyond academics by sponsoring a performance of "The Yellow Dress," a powerful one-woman play about a teenage victim of dating violence. The production challenged participants to unite school and community, intellect and heart. Education helps change abusive behavior by billing violence as aberrant behavior. (MLH)
