At Kennedy School we are joining the many communities nationwide to take an active role in the movement against bullying. Throughout the month of October, we will be providing many opportunities for education on bullying and themes to get our message across. Our students will also make a connection to our Social Emotional Learning topic of the month: Teamwork.

Students will write an anti-bullying message on a strip of ORANGE construction paper that will connect to form a school-wide chain....our message is much stronger when we come together to make a difference!
