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

  • We should care about bullying because bullying can really hurt someone. Bullying is everywhere and it happens everyday. People would say things behind other peoples' backs and then could get spread around schools and then make fun of them. No one helps out the person that was bullied. We need to help out people who get bullied and not watch the person get bullied because that's not right.

  • I care about stopping bullying because people that are bullying other people or students it might hurt them or maybe we just don't know what is going on with their life and they just don't want to have their feelings so they wanted to bully others.

  • I care because I was bullied and it really hurts your confidence and self esteem. Also, I know someone who hurt themselves because they were being bullied. I don't want anyone else to go through that pain.

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.
