No Bully Zone!

What is Bullying?

Students are being bullied when another student or several other students:

  • Say mean and hurtful things to them or make fun of them
  • Completely ignore or exclude them from things on purpose
  • Hit, kick, push, shove around, or lock them inside a room
  • Tell lies, spread false rumors about them or students dislike them

A N D. . . . . .

  • These things happen REPEATEDLY
  • It is difficult for the student being bullied to defend himself or herself

T H E R E F O R E. . . . . .

  • Aggressive behavior is NOT always bullying, even though it is not acceptable
  • Negative, mean behavior that occurs repeatedly (a week or more) and is characterized by an imbalance of power or strength

is BULLYING.
