3. Bullying is…
Bullying is different for all people. That is
why it is so hard to encompass bullying
and control it in school. But, it is not
impossible to try, which is exactly what
we are trying to do, and to implement in
our school.
In general, bullying could be defined as
teasing, calling names, or physical
fighting. But there is such deeper levels
to it, including emotional and cyber-
bullying.

4. Social Alienation
This is when a bully excludes
someone from a group on purpose
in order to make them feel bad. It
can also include spreading rumors
about them.
Intimidation
When a bully threatens someone
and frightens them to make them
do the bully’s bidding
Cyber-Bullying
This is done by sending
messages, pictures, or information
using electronic
media, computers, and cell
phones to hurt that person.

6. Personal Entries
 These are some interviews that  (Insert video here)
we had with students at Eastlake
High School. This not only
proves that bullying is indeed a
problem at EHS, but it also gives
reason for us to create a new
Code of Conduct for our school’s
benefit.

7. Global Examples
 Bullying has become such a problem in schools and
keeps rising as time passes by, and it does not seem
to stop. Recent studies reported by The Malibu Times
show that about 2.7 million students are bullied each
year and about 25% of these students are bullied
through means of technology. Bullying, if
unchecked, can lead to tragic consequences, usually
suicide or violent acts.
 One of the most recent incidents include 13-year-old
Seth Walsh from Tehachapi, Calif., hung himself after
years of being bullied because he was gay in 2010. In
response, California Governor Jerry Brown signed
legislation in Oct. 2011 creating Seth's Law. The new
law requires school districts to implement policies and
procedures that prohibit
discrimination, harassment, intimidation and
bullying, and a system for reporting and addressing
complaints of such instances.

8. Global Examples
 Although suicides have usually
occurred to gay, lesbian, or
transgender teens it is not the only
cause of it. One example would be
15 year-old Phoebe Prince, a new
student from Ireland, reportedly
suffered months of nearly constant
stalking and harassment, and
committed suicide after weeks of
bullying on Facebook and at her
high school. This boy to the right
plead not guilty and ended up with
a misdemeanor charge and 100
hours of community service. How
is it possible that someone who
led a girl to her death end up
serving community service?

10. Effects of Bulluing
How does this affect our school as a whole?
 If bullying does continue at the rate that it is
going on right now, it will not be long before
bullying becomes unstoppable at EHS.
Students will be killing themselves, bringing
guns to school for raids, and our motto will
be devalued; “Where Today's Learning
Shapes Tomorrow’s DOOM”!
 On the educational side of it, students will be
getting lower grades on CSTs, SATs, and
ACTs and will not be able to get a full
education. Which means that will mark our
school as low-ranking and budgets will be
cut and it won’t be possible to return to the
status we have so firmly held on to.

11. Effects of Bullying
How does this affect society in the end?
 If we become one of the lowest-ranking
schools in our district, our community will
also be affected. Everyone will drive past
Eastlake High and smirk, children will have
to resort going to Otay or Mater Dei, which
we know are nowhere near our pattern of
success we maintain at this moment.
Also, the real estate market will drop more
than it has already, no one will want to live in
this part of town because who would want to
go to a school that will allow terror be
bestowed upon you and surely lead you to
failure?

 If we do create a Code of Conduct  Focusing on the community, if
for our school, and eventually the Eastlake High School does

studies and their social life without
having to worry about being
judged. Bullies, by that time, will
become so miniscule that it will not
be such a big problem as it is right
now and therefore students will be
discouraged to break the rules.

14. If we do apply this new Code of Conduct to our school, in just
a matter of years we can consult with the SUHSD Board to
propose implementing it in all of their schools. Supposing
that it would be successful in the majority of the
schools, there is no reason why we cannot go all the way
to county/state or, in a distant future, country! One great
example of a situation like this one would be the program
known as AVID. It started off as a single class in
Clairemont High School here in San Diego in 1980 by Mary
Catherine Swanson. If she was able to create a program
now used in 4,500 schools in 45 states, the District of
Columbia, and 16 countries/territories, what hold us back
from stopping bullying at least in our own school? As
students, we have experienced this completely first-hand
and know how to handle these types of situations, and we
also expect great success from this new project that along
with our English teacher, Mrs. Trongale, have created.

Thank you for listening and have a
wonderful afternoon! 
