Notes
· Bullying will continue to be another issue for this new school year.
· All schools are trying to enforce a bully- free learning zone so schools can be safe.
· Teachers and other authority members need to be trained to handle bullying situations so they can stop it right away.
· There should be a clear and easy way for teachers to report a case of bullying so the bullying does not spread.
· To prevent bullying in a school, student must show that they can maintain a safe learning environment for a long period of time.
· It is very difficult to tell bullies to stop because they take pride in what they do and people admire them for that.
· Bullies are usually the most popular kids in school for what they do.
· “Contrary to the common stereotype that bullies are unhappy, unsuccessful misfits attempting to compensate with their fists, those who rule the hallways are typically seen as cool and accomplished.” (Fox, pg.1)
· Many of the popular bullies were found to be female.
· Bullies like to watch and think about bullying and when they see it happen, they enjoy it and take pleasure in it.
· “Effort to combat bullying will be feeble so long we as we admire aggressors and pity pushovers. Sure, schools need to change, but so does society.” (Fox, pg.2)
