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 it is not right. No one should have to feel afraid to go to school. No one should want to harm or end their life.

  • I care because bullying is not fun, nor a nice thing to do. Don't bully someone because they look, walk, and act differently, we are all the same despite the different problems we go through in life. The actions you do to do someone will affect them negatively. You don't want to be responsible for that, the guilt will eat you up alive.

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.
