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.

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.

People don't need to be degraded for the ethnicity, or skin color, because they get affected by what we say and how we treat them. We need to treat them as we want to be treated.

This is religious bullying because I saw it there was a girl who was wearing a scarf. Once they threw the pencil case at her from the fourth floor, that's called religious bullying.

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.
