HOPEDALE – An anti-bullying campaign implemented in one Harrison Hills City school will soon be spreading across the district.
Teachers and classified staff have begun training in each of the three buildings, with Harrison East Elementary personnel gathering at the Hopedale Fire Hall on Wednesday. It is all part of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program, a Swedish-based, comprehensive method that is used worldwide to reduce existing problems among students, prevent new problems, achieve better peer relations and create a positive school climate. It is a long-term, system-wide program for change involving the school, individual, classroom and community.

Harrison Central Jr./Sr. High and Harrison North Elementary will conduct similar sessions with their own staff as the anti-bullying program is implemented across the district this fall.
Details of this successful program are featured in this weeks print edition of the Harrison News-Herald.

That means we will need an
That means we will need an Anti-Bullying Co-Ordinator;
and teachers will have to be certified in Anti-Bullying which means they will have to go to Anti-Bullying Conferences; they too will have to take Anti-Bullying classes to remain certified in Babysitting in the Harrison Hills City School District. This too will lead to a BS Degree in Anti-Bullying! This is called Job Creation! Thank God for our POTUS! When I went to school our Anti-Bullying Co-Ordinator was called
“The Principal”!
this is a bunch of “bully ‘s..”. all that is needed is a peice of oak ’bout 2′ long x 3/4″ thick x 4″ wide with a handle on one end. get the “do gooders, co ordinators out and bring back superintendents/principalos like r. a. kammeyer or charles winters.
Agrees w/ #7!
