Bullying Prevention You’re not alone. We’re here to help.
Nearly one in five students report being bullied at school. Bullying can take many forms, from physical altercations to mean rumors to online cruelty, but they share one common theme: bullying hurts
What is bullying?
Bullying is repeated, unwanted, and aggressive behavior, often among school-aged children but can certainly last well beyond that. Bullying is when someone uses their power, real or perceived, to hurt someone or make them feel bad or intimidated. Cyberbullying is bullying performed in an online setting, using social media or other electronic communication methods. Sometimes this is anonymous; sometimes it’s not.
Stride is committed to bullying prevention—and we can help provide a safe, supportive alternative for your family.
