The month of October is widely celebrated as National Bullying Prevention month. Many teenagers and children are bullied everyday. We as a community should feel obligated to stop bullying from happening. Bullying can cause a child to shut down, lower their self esteem, and make them feel unsafe. Bullying Prevention Month has helped children feel safer and has helped decrease bullying by 25% when observed in schools.
Menchville and Newport News Public Schools will participate in district-wide Bullying Prevention and Awareness activities during October 17-October 20.
Monday-Thursday – watch anti-bullying PSA’s by Menchville students and faculty on the morning announcements.
Monday Wear blue. There will be a spoken word video performed by PBIS Ambassador Elijah Saleem.
Tuesday: there will be a banner set up outside the cafeteria for students to sign and show their support for the prevention of bullying.
Wednesday: wear your favorite team jersey
Thursday make sure you wear all black to black out bullying.
Friday: wear your Menchville attire to show that we as a school community are coming together to help our students feel safe.
