For the second year in a row, Sheldon High School students pledged to #UnfollwBullying through a week-long awareness campaign at their school.
On Monday, January 27, Sheldon High School’s week-long campaign kicked off with a photo pledge booth set up for students to take a “Stop Hate” photo pledge and receive an #UnfollowBullying wristband. Throughout the week, anti-bullying statistics were displayed around the school – on flyers, posters, lunch trays, student store items and in the daily bulletin. In addition to the various activities, a slide show was presented in the cafeteria throughout the week highlighting statistics and public service announcements against bullying.
Each day of the week at Sheldon had a specific focus:
|
Mon. |
Tues. |
Wed. |
Thurs. |
Fri. |
| What is bullying? | Cyberbullying | Effects of Bullying – Depression, Suicide and School Violence | How to get help | “Being An Ally” & “Give a Compliment, Get a Compliment” |
After the week-long campaign at Sheldon, #UnfollowBullying committee students plan to reach out to their feeder schools (Maeola Beitzel, Arthur C. Butler, Robert J. Fite and Mary Tsukamoto elementary schools and T.R. Smedberg Middle School) to help them create their own anti-bullying pledge walls, activities and possibly a mini-assembly hosted by Sheldon students to effectively reach out to the younger students.
High school students are continuing to take a stand against online cruelty. Students throughout the district are stepping up as a school community to inspire others to challenge and delete cyberbullying. Way to go Sheldon High School!
