StopBullying.gov trying to make a difference

Arne Duncan, Secretary of Education, recently released the video, “It Gets Better,” to foster safe learning spaces in our US schools. It advocates StopBullying.gov as a resource for parents, teachers, administrators, and students to find ways to help those victimized by and perpetrating school bullying.

It lists the proper response to when a bullying event occurs: spot bullying on the spot, find out what happened, support the kids involved, be more than a bystander.

Secretary Duncan says, “All of us here at the Department of Education are committed to making sure that young people today can grow up free of fear, violence, and bullying and do everything we can to protect them.”
