   Schools are a primary place where bullying can happen. Helping to establish a supportive and safe school climate where all students are accepted and knowing how to respond when bullying happens are key to making sure all students are able to learn and grow.

 

 

  • Learn what bullying is and what it is not. Many behaviors that look like bullying may be just as serious, but may require different response strategies. You can also learn about what to look for as warning signs that some of your students might be involved in bullying and who might be at more risk for being involved.
  • Establish a safe school climate. Often the first step to preventing bullying is making sure the students, teachers, and administrators alike are educated about bullying.
  • Learn how to engage parents and youth in the building a positive school climate. Learning how to talk about bullying with youth is a critical step.
  • Respond when bullying happens. Learn how to stop it on the spot, find out what happened, and support all students involved.

"Teachers and administrators typically see only about 4% of bullying incidents."

"160,000 students a day skip school because of bullying."
