Hello, 5th Grade Families!

We will be using the Second Step Bullying Prevention curriculum in the 5th grade classes, beginning on Tuesday, September 9th. The Second Step program teaches children important skills for getting along with others and doing well in school. In this unit, your child will learn specific skills to help stop bullying. Students will learn how to:

• Recognize when bullying is happening, report bullying to a caring adult, and refuse to let bullying happen

• Be a bystander who helps stop bullying

• Support someone being bullied by standing up for that person and being kind and inclusive

• Recognize, report, and refuse cyber-bullying when they see or know about it happening

Our staff are an important part of bullying prevention, and can recognize and respond to bullying as well as use strategies that support a positive school and classroom climate.

We encourage you to talk with your child and ask them what they are learning about preventing bullying. Give them the clear message that it is never okay to bully others, and to ask for help if they or someone else is being bullied. If you have any questions, please contact me. Thank you for helping us make our school a safe, respectful place where everyone can learn!

Laura Gourlay, School Counselor
