Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying is a form of harassment that is done through text messaging, snapchat, email, and other online chat bases. As our use of technology is increasing, so it the threat of cyberbullying. Cyberbullying can have a negative impact on a student's mental and emotional health. To prevent cyberbullying, it is important to educate our children about the causes and effects, what can happen when a person cyberbullies, and what they should do if they witness cyberbullying.

If a student is a victim of cyberbullying in the classroom, or witnesses it, come straight to Ms. Hunkins and tell her immediately. Do not wait until after school to do so. If it were to occur in a different classroom, make sure you tell the nearest adult as soon as possible.
