Bullying should not go unnoticed. After an incident at Overhills Middle, some students have worked together to prevent that from happening again. There is a petition that some students have signed to raise awareness against bullying. So far there are over 300 signatures. Each student who signs receives a blue piece of yarn. Previously they were giving out rainbow pieces of yarn but ran out.
Everyone in their life has been bullied at least once. This could be people talking behind your back, cyber bullying or rude nicknames. Many say that bullies pick on others to make themselves feel better. Bullying people is wrong and there are many different ways to improve your own self-confidence. A good way is to not compare your life to others. Becoming depressed over a person you see wearing expensive clothing might make you want to talk down to someone who has clothes less than you. Taking at least 2 minutes out of your day to write down three things you like about yourself is good to build your self-esteem.
