National Bullying Prevention Month

As part of our schoolwide bullying program we participate in Unity Day sponsored by Pacer.org.  This year we are using the idea provided in the resource kit Project Connect I had my parent volunteer cut a paper strip for each student in grade 1-5 to write a sentence on orange paper what they can do to make our school safe and reduce bullying.  Each class is giving me their links connected in a paper chain.  For Unity Day next Wednesday my volunteer (and I) will hang the chains together and spell out UNITE.  Then hopefully many students and staff will remember to wear orange on October 9. Unity Day has a great elementary level flyer I have copied and hung around our school to promote this special day as part of our month long campaign to promote a school climate wear everyone is safe, caring, and respectful.
