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.

Tell Us Why You Care

  • I care because I want people to realize how bad bullying can hurt someone. It could make them have trauma or quit something they love. Sometimes people don’t help and just watch, that’s never right you need to help people to prevent bullying. This shows how intense bullying is and it’s never right and if you do have a bully than tell an adult, or ask for help.

  • I Care because someone can get hurt or break a bone. I think telling someone is the best solution to help them.

  • I care because i don't want anyone being bullied and them being sad, because the person that is being bullied can really hurt them self. i don't want them being sad in anyway, they can do a lot of stuff to their body that can ruin their health.

I was bullied in elementary school
Anonymous

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.
