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

  • You never know what a person is going through. It could really hurt someone and they can hurt themselves due to the fact that they are bullied. If you see someone being bullied help them because what if that was you? Please stop the hate.

  • I care because we should tell an adult because bullying can cause bad things to happen. when you bully people think they're not good enough and when you bully people can hurt themselves.

  • Because bullying is wrong and if we let people bully the community is going to be a a mess and it will be a huge problem for the bully (will become a criminal) and for the one who is getting bullied (will be become weak and will never stand for themselves).

  • I care because everyone should be treated evenly and not care about differences. People shouldn't be saying anything bad about you even if its the littlest thing, people should be nice and care about everyone.
