others” (Publius Syrus).
Treating people and others how you want to be
treated is a powerful, motivating way to live through
life.

Bullying in School
Start the end of bullying in school. “Conduct

adults intervene, and whether your prevention efforts
are working” (stopbullying.gov).
Engage parents and youth
Have policies and rules about bullying
Make a safe environment
Motivate students to be aware and prevent bullying

others” (J. Petit Senn).
“Never lose a chance of
saying a kind word”
(William Thackeray)
9. Remember!
“Be not afraid of greatness: some
are born great, some achieve
