Student Action Plan Against Bullying
Ready to take action to address bullying? Maybe not sure how to start? As a student, bullying is something that impacts you, your peers, and your school – whether you’re the target of bullying, a witness, or the person who bullies. Bullying can end, but that won’t happen unless students, parents, and educators work together and take action.

1. No person should ever go through bullying, everyone is perfect and unique in their own way and they shouldn’t be judged for it.
2. It can have a bad effect on a person’s mental health. It makes the victim more insecure, have low self-esteem and gain mental disorders.
3. No one deserves to be humiliated or made fun of, everyone shouldn’t hate for who they are and feel bad about their selves.
4. People’s feelings matter.
5. Bullying can hurt a kid, physically, mentally or verbally.

Bullying is the worst thing in the world. Why would people be mean on purpose? Its silly. Remember, it is just as easy to be nice, as it is to be mean.

I was bullied in elementary school
April 9, 2024
When I was in 4th grade I liked this one boy but there were 2 people who would always bully me because of it. They would laugh at me for it. They would go out of their way to make me feel miserable. I finally stood up to them one day and then I reported them to the principal.
