BCMS tackles bullying with educational program
Butler County Middle School has implemented a new Bully-Free Program. The week of August 13th through the 17th the teachers conducted lessons each day on different aspects of bullying and strategies for handling this situation. The lessons were:
Day 1: What is Bullying?
Day 2: Forms of Bullying
Day 3: Dealing with Bullying
Day 4: Conflict Resolution
Following the instructional part of this program, which is entitled: STOP, WALK, TALK, the students received a Bully-Free bracelet, which they are to wear to remind them about the lessons they learned from the program.
The materials from this program are posted on the BCMS website and parents and the community are encouraged to look at this material and discuss it with their children.
"It will take all of us working together to find a solution to bullying and its effects," said BCMS Principal Robert Tuck. "At BCMS we want to be proactive in dealing effectively with the issue of bullying. Both our teachers and students worked hard on this program and it has been good for our school," added Tuck.
