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.

  • I care because bullying needs to stop and can really hurt somebody's self-confidence or harm them and worse they might just think of hurting themselves without even telling an adult, teacher, or a guidance consular. Probably ruin people's lives physically and mentally, and their self-esteem. They'll think they don't belong there because they're overweight or they don't fit in and have bad thoughts of school and in addition won't want to go to school, and for the future. In conclusion, I care because bullying needs to stop for the future.

  • No one should be told that they are any less of a human than anybody else. Diversity is something that should be celebrated. I firmly believe that bullying is something that should be already gone, a thing of the past. I have a message for the bullied, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You are strong enough to get through this. I believe in you!

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.
