Take Action! SPEAKUP!
As an adult advocate, it is crucial to provide a support system for students being affected by bullying. Reaching out to students and offering multiple solutions could potentially save their life. Developmentally responsive middle schools should offer an advisory program during the school day. Action should be taken for those students in need of any sort of help, which includes a bullying problem. Community and family involvement to help raise awareness of bullying is one key aspect to a positive change within the school community.
ASK QUESTIONS! This is a difficult time for middle school students and they are not always forthcoming about issues they are currently dealing with!

hurt you a bit, but in the end, you end up
polished and they end up useless.”
