Preparing for National Bullying Prevention Month in October


With students, teachers and administrators getting settled into the new school year, it is important to remember student safety issues, including bullying. This October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and with September bringing us school shootings and parents taking bullying retaliation into their own hands, it is critical that schools address bullying head on. Training both staff and students how to recognize bullying, providing tools to communicate issues and tracking issues to recognize trends, will help administrators show that bullying will not be tolerated in schools. 

The PublicSchoolWORKS’ Student Bullying Reporting System provides 24/7 online and telephone systems that allow students and parents to report bullying incidents.  It includes automated tools that immediately notify and mobilize school administrators and appropriate individuals when an incident is reported. To find out more about this feature, or about how you can ensure your staff is prepared to recognize and deal with bullying, email sales@publicschoolworks.com.
