I am an elementary school teacher in a rural school
district in upstate NY. The issue of bullying in all forms
(including cyber-bullying) has been an increasingly
dusturbing problem in our district (and across the
country). We've had tolerance and acceptance
workshops/assemblies with the students at all levels, but
that is only a temporary fix. Recently we decided to form a
committee to try and research possible porograms that other
schools across the state/country are using that are
effective.
Bottom line: We need an effective program that is K-12 and
has clear consequences for the offenders. Our district
needs to develop a policy that creates a safe learning
environment for our students and teachers. I've been doing
research on the internet, but wanted some feedback from
those that have experience with it firsthand. Any
suggestions?
