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 if you bully someone it can hurt the person your bullying, it can also cause the person you bully to hurt themselves. Bullying should stop because if you don't stop you can get in big trouble, And you can also get suspended or go to kids' jail. They only reason why i say to stop bullying because you don't want to make your mom disappointed and also make your parents sad.

  • I was bullied in elementary and middle school. It stopped in 8th grade. I never want anyone else to feel that they are alone and that they have no one to talk to.

  • I care because if someone is being bullied and they may not say anything about the bullying happening they may get hurt even more than they already are by the bully and if I see the bullying happening I would probably take up for the kid who is being bullied and being made fun of. bullies only do this stuff to make themselves feel better about what they did and usually the bullies have low self-esteem and maybe they do these things because they are jealous of the kid they are making fun I think that this would make the bullies parents look bad by not raising their kids right by like not having no manners for themself and not having any respect to anyone

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.
