ACTIVITIES: It’s Bullying Prevention Week

Bullying is an intentional behavior that hurts, harms, or humiliates a student, either physically, verbally, or emotionally and can happen while at school, in the community, or online. Those who are doing the bullying often have more social or physical power, while “those who are targeted have difficulty stopping the behavior. Those doing the bullying often have more social or physical power, “while those targeted have difficulty stopping the behavior. The behavior is typically repeated, though it can be a one-time event. Students often describe bullying as when “someone makes you feel less about who you are as a person.“ Although bullying should never be a part of childhood, more than one in every five students (20.2%) will be bullied this school year. 71% of youth have witnessed bullying at school. The age-old saying:  “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me,”  is simply not true, as bullying negatively impacts both targets and the witnesses. It can lead to isolation, low-esteem, academic problems, substance abuse, and other unhealthy behaviors.  The good news is bullying is 100% preventable.

October is National Bullying Prevention Month. This week Ridge View will bring awareness to bullying prevention by hosting a series of events to promote kindness, acceptance, and inclusion.

ACADEMICS: Scholar Students Testify to Legislative Committee

On Thursday, September 23, 2021 the Scholars Academy Magnet for Business and Law sophomore and junior classes testified to the South Carolina Joint Legislative and Citizens Committee on Children, which travels the state hearing concerns related to the welfare of our young people and then creates a report given to the legislature as advisement for their upcoming session. Our students spoke on the need for better comprehensive health education, more mental health services, better education on how to identify potential abuse, why we have to discuss issues of racism with our young people, the need for masks in schools, and the benefits of asynchronous learning for students’ mental health.  We are proud of them for taking the opportunity to use their voice.
