The 15 Harrison Elementary Peer Mediators completed the training required to be positive role models for their school, student body and community. Peer Mediation is a process in which the students with a problem or conflict work together with the help of a neutral third person/people, cooperating to resolve their conflict peaceably. The Peer Mediator is the neutral third person. Peer Mediation is a way to resolve conflict in which the disputants, or those who disagree, have a chance to sit face-to-face and talk, uninterrupted, so each point of view is heard. After the problem is identified, the disputants list options for mutual gain and choose a win-win situation. They finalize an agreement to behave in some way from that point forward.
