Bullying -- Resources for Parents

Bullying is a hot topic for junior high students and parents.  Last month, Valley View Junior High participated in the national "Stomp Out Bullying" campaign.  Activities were completed during Spartan Time to educate students on bullying behavior -- what it looks like, how it affects others, and ways to respond when students are being bullied. 

The following websites are very helpful in terms of educating parents and students about bullying behavior and the best ways to respond:

Stomp Out Bullying

Stop Bullying.gov

The Bully Project

National Crime Prevention Council

In addition to these websites, the following books are also excellent resources on dealing with bullying:

Bullied by Carrie Goldman




Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman


The Bully, The Bullied and the Bystander by Barbara Coloroso


Understanding Girl Bullying and What to do About It



A Smart Kid's Guide to Online Bullying
