About:
Students and staff displayed a spirit of being united for kindness, acceptance and inclusion. They also dressed in orange to send a message of support, hope and unity against bullying. Throughout the week, students created posters of support with positive messages that bullying will not be tolerated. They also created a visual unity statement by writing anti-bullying statements on orange strips of paper. Those paper links were then connected to create one long chain, which represented unity against bullying. Students received bookmarks that read, “Be a Champion Against Bullying.” They also signed a petition to not bully.
