Anti-Bullying Campaign

Community Country Day School has six middle school students and a teacher attending the 2011 Healthy Youth Development P.E.A.C.E. Festival at The Summit Student Center today! This event is designed for students in grades 6-8. Our students are being educated about non-bullying, civility, empowerment, and other positive factors that reduce problem behaviors in schools. The main objective in this event is to provide students with action strategies they can utilize in their schools to create a bully-free environment in their school. The goal of the Erie Peace Festival is to highlight a Bullying Reduction campaign and empower youth in planning and organizing a commuity bullying reduction plan. Today our students will have a chance to write how they have been affected by bullying on a moving wall, and CCDS will get the chance to have this wall in our own school. We are very excited to hear what our students learned today and have them help CCDS put a stop to bullying!
