Bullying Prevention Month

In celebration of Bullying Prevention Month, Chardon Middle School students took part in the “Be the I in Kind” campaign on Oct. 17.

Organized by the seventh-grade Sources of Strength leaders, the event encouraged students to pledge kindness both at school and in the community. Students made personal commitments to spread positivity.

Additionally, the students observed Unity Day on Oct. 16 by wearing orange, a symbol of solidarity against bullying. Throughout the week, students across all grades participated in Sources of Strength “Positive Friends” lessons during FLEX groups. The sessions focused on fostering respect, kindness and discussing ways to prevent bullying.

The seventh-grade Sources of Strength leaders from the media production class also worked on a photo project, capturing uplifting moments from the campaign. The photos will be featured in an upcoming presentation during parent-teacher conferences this fall.
