Bullying is a common form of school violence and is often misidentifi ed. Dealing with bullying can be a traumatic experience for children and their families. Research reveals that over 30% of students may be engaged in bullying, however, too often, witnesses and bystanders do nothing to help those being bullied. Mr. Dinwiddie will present the facts and myths about bullying. He will discuss strategies for identifying and confronting those who are being bullied, those who are bullying others, and the bystanders. He will also present information about proven strategies for reducing bullying and empowering students impacted by bullying. Special attention will be given to the needs of kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
