Why America Might Lose The Battle Against Bullying, How We Can Win!
This book is written for the parents, teachers and students who are more than mere observers in the national effort to reduce harmful student interactions in our elementary, middle and high schools.
It is for teachers who say they need, but have not found, practical answers in the plethora of simplistic anti-bully “how to” books.
It is for parents who say that they fear for their child’s safety when they go to school.
It is for students who say that they see what is happening around them and want to be involved in the solution.
A review of the most effective approaches to reduce harmful behaviors indicates that schools will see a reduction in bullying behaviors when students, parents and teachers work together as an established team, use interventions supported by research and measure their results.
The reason that schools are losing their battle against bullying isn’t for a lack of an available plan but rather for the following reasons:
1) “We don’t have the time.” Many schools are not doing anything to reduce bullying due to a rigorous focus on academic achievement.
2) “What we are doing isn’t working.” Some schools are doing something but not with good plan supported by research.
3) “We couldn’t get it off the ground.” Some schools have all the right tools and a good plan but they can’t get the students, parents and teachers behind the program.
This book is a tool kit and contains the common factors of the best applied research and interventions that really work to reduce harmful student interactions in our schools While tools are important, so is the honest perspectives of students, parents and teachers whose voices must be heard about the realities of why some anti-bullying programs work but most fail.
The students, teachers and parents on the front line of the battle against bullying are the true lights of hope in the effort to end harmful student interactions. They are working hard and doing everything they can to come up with solutions.
So this book is written for anyone who needs effective and efficient support in their frontline effort. It is a template for action outlined within the reality of what really occurs within a school setting.
These concepts, ideas and honest discussion are for you and your school.
Create your plan now.
