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, I care for those who go through stuff at home. I care for those who have been diagnosed with mental illnesses. I care for anyone, for you never know their story. There is always two sides to a story, what you see of someone at school, doesn't always depict their feelings or struggles. Also, if you know that you wouldn't appreciate it, think about it, that person won't either.

Bullying is wrong and can hurt others phsically and mentally. It can change someones life and can lead to self-harm, if there is ever a bully hurting someone stand up for them. Bullying is bad and should be banned everywhere.

I care because it really sucks to be bullied, people making you feel so different like if you're the only person with differences. IT JUST SUCKS and I really hate bullying and bullies. they make people so crappy about themselves.

I care because bullying does immense harm to a person's psychological image of themselves and the world, and it is not worth harming a person in that way.
