National Bullying Prevention Month – October 2022

It’s aggressive, mean, and potentially life-threatening. Bullying comes in many forms, none of which are acceptable. According to a recent federal survey, nearly 20 percent of U.S. high school students reported being bullied on school property within the past year. (Fifteen percent reported cyberbullying.) So how can we help?

We can start by launching a community-wide educational effort that focuses on celebrating our differences. In fact a few organizations and educational institutes who want to eliminate such flaws have scholarships available for those students who are interested and have unique ideas to fight these bullies.

October’s National Bullying Prevention Month reminds us that students, parents, teachers, and school administrators all play a role. Positive change comes as we begin to emphasize respect and inclusion on campuses across the country.  To obtain further information please go ​NATIONAL BULLYING PREVENTION MONTH -October 2022 - National Today
