1.13 - Bullying Prevention /Awareness

Bullying Awareness Month

 

Welcome back to When the Wind Blows...an Epic podcast for parents, teachers, leaders and anyone vested in the world of education. …I asked a few of the most vocal parents on Facebook to help me come up with this outline.

 

Who: What: 

How did you get involved in education? What made you bring that to Epic?

 

Sean: This is Anti-bullying awareness month. What percentage of the kiddos that come to our school have through SM or through surveys have identified as being bullied in their previous school?

Clayton: You were the first student story we made. You have kind of been immortalized as this 14 year old kid. What have you been up to since that video?

 

Clayton: What message do you have for those that say “bullying has been around for forever...I was bullied and I just sucked it up”

 

Clayton: Do you have any clue or do you ever look up those bullies on FB to compare your stories? 

 

Sean: You have seen soooooo many of these stories come through in the last 10 years; what are some stories that stick out in your head?
