Everyone knows Hollywood’s high school cliché as being the ultimate breeding ground for bullying. But how big of a problem is it really?
Over the past several years, emphasis in the presentations has shifted from cyber bullying to sexual harassment. From this, they hope students will learn that there are many different kinds of bullying, which include verbal and physical bullying as well as both cyberbullying and sexual harassment. The message is, that no matter how harmless you may think it is, none of it will be tolerated.
Guidance Counselor, Nancy Templer said, “The presentations are based on what we feel is most pertinent and what parents think is important.” Informational packets may also be distributed for parents to look over and discuss with their children.

Bullying hurts from wherever it comes from. All bullying is the same. It causes emotionl and physical pain and should be stopped. Teachers should do more to try to stop bullying among schools. I don’t think a one week bully prevention plan is going to work to stop bullying.
