RSVP to sturnbaugh@towson.edu by March 22
“The Continuum of School Violence: From Newtown to Every-town”
Susquehanna Terrace
Presentation includes most recent research about school bullying:
- Most important things families, caregivers, educators and community members need to know about how to stop and prevent school bullying.
- It is critical that we understand who is involved in school bullying, including critical attributes of bullies and victims
- We also need to understand what constitutes school bullying and how bullying evolves in different school communities
Some disturbing facts:
- School bullying statistics in the United States show that about one in four kids in the U.S. are bullied on a regular basis.
- About 85 percent of bullying cases, no intervention or effort is made by ateacher or administration member of the school to stop the bullying from taking place.
This event is sponsored by the Epsilon Alpha Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi at Towson University.
