Bullying! What School Administrators Need to Know

Without question, bullying is occurring in your school. As a school administrator, your students deserve to feel safe without the fear, degradation and humiliation bullying creates. While bullying used to be thought of as a rite of passage and relatively harmless behavior to help build a young person's character, it is now known to have long-lasting harmful effects for both the victim and the bully.

The White House has initiated an anti-bullying campaignthat shines a spotlight on the growing problem. As a school administrator, that spotlight is shining directly on you.
