Today and for the next three Mondays, our school counselor, Beth Schille, will be coming into my classroom to teach our EdVenture Team students the Bully-Proofing lessons for our school. If you have any questions about the curriculum, the lessons, or things that you have heard about it from your students, please do not hesitate to contact Beth [link] and ask directly.
Mr. Knickrehm and I believe these lessons are so important for the culture of Whatcom Middle School. At this time in students' lives, they need to know how to navigate not just interpersonal relationships, but how to advocate for others who don't advocate for themselves or who don't have a peer group to advocate for them. This curriculum and the discussions around it help students to think about their role in bullying situations they may be a part of or that they may merely be witnessing.
Thank you for supporting your child's self-reflection on bullying in schools.
Peace.
