1. Bullying
By Jane Blaugrund, Dana Jensen,
Connor Quinn, Lindsay Fields, and
Cole Wolf

2. Types of Bullying
• Social- This is a type of bullying that can effect
someone’s emotions towards friendships or
groups.

3. Types of Bullying
• Physical- When somebody is bullied physically,
they are intentionally hurt.

4. Types of Bullying
• Cyber- This is a type of bullying that hurts
someone emotionally on the computer.

5. Types of Bullying
• Verbal- This is a type of bullying that can
include the victim being harassed by the bully
through words and can harm the victim
mentally.

6. Statistics
• Almost ¼ Elementary students report having
been bullied 1-3 times in last month
• Pennsylvania 4th worst bullying state
• 282,000 students bullied each month
• 87% shootings for revenge
• About half young people in America
experienced form of cyber bullying, and 10-
20% experience regularly

7. Tactics to Eliminate Bullying
• H- Help
• A- Assert yourself
• H- Humor
• A- Avoid
• S- Self Talk
• O- Own it
• Posters put up by teachers & guidance counselors
given individual statistic and basic information
about bullying classes.

8. Our Strategies
• Harder Consequences- Suspension instead of
detention with guidance counselor bullying
class.
• Entire School Assembly- goes in depth with
consequences for the victim like suicide or a
need for revenge which results in some
shootings.
• Video Cameras in hallways with kid-friendly
poster

9. Implementing our Strategy
• We could talk to principal and get student
council involved in making an in depth
presentation for school.
• Talk to Art Club make posters
• Install small, unnoticeable video cameras

10. Materials for Strategies
• Well-developed PowerPoint including results
• Victims
• Announcements about assembly
• 2nd Strategy- need small video cameras
• Poster supplies and positive messages

11. Proof our Ideas Work
• Know if strategies work when we take a survey
before/after and there are less kids reporting
being bullied.
• Bullies notice there is no chance to bully so
incidents decrease.

12. Targets
• Anyone could be a target if they are weak,
have low self-confidence, or alone.
• Right place, right time
• Middle Schoolers common because have very
low self-confidence due to changes in their
friends, bodies, and minds.
• Religious/Racist targets are those with a
specific religion or race.

13. How do Victims Deal with it?
• Victims of bullying display a range of responses, even
many years later, such as:
• Telling a teacher or parent
• Committing suicide
• Telling their problems to a counselor
• Bullying others
• Bringing a gun to school (over 100,000 students do)
• Doing drugs because they were not educated on them
and they think the drugs will make them feel better
