Pledge to be a Caring Adult Who Helps Bullied Students

When you take National Education Association’s Bully Free pledge, you are promising students that they can talk to you and you will listen, that you will stand up for them, and that they are not alone. Take the following actions to carry out your promise to advocate for bullied students.

Be Present and Available to Observe and Listen

We know that bullying commonly takes place in areas on school grounds with little or no supervision (such as in the hallways between classes). Make an effort to move to the areas where students are during transition times. Just your presence can make a huge difference. And, when something does happen, you are there to see it with your own eyes and intervene right away. For more information check out this website: http://www.nea.org/home/neabullyfree.html
