Celebrating Unity Week at LHS in the Wellness Center! We challenge you to think about how you can build community and help contribute to creating a positive school culture rooted in kindness, acceptance, and inclusion.
Standup for bullying when it occurs. Bullying can look like:
Physical bullying-
Physical bullying includes hitting, kicking, tripping, pinching and pushing or damaging property. Physical bullying causes both short term and long term damage.
Verbal bullying-
Verbal bulling includes name calling, insults, teasing, intimidation, homophobic or racist remarks, or verbal abuse. While verbal bullying can start off harmless, it can escalate to levels which start affecting the individual target.
Social bullying-
Social bullying, sometimes referred to as covert bullying, is often harder to recognise and can be carried out behind the bullied person’s back. It is designed to harm someone’s social reputation and / or cause humiliation.
Cyber bullying-
The Cyber Bullying Research Centre defines cyber bullying as: Intentional and repeated harm inflicted through the use of computers, phones, and other electronic devices.
Cyber bullying can be overt or covert bullying behaviours using digital technologies including hardware such as computers and smartphones, and software such as social media, instant messaging, texts, websites and other online platforms.
Thank you to the Livermore High school Alumni Association for their generosity in awarding the Wellness Center funds to pay for supplies needed to make the week a success!
