The counselors have been talking to students going from class to class recently to get a sense of the awareness of bullying and cyberbullying there is on campus. Our counselors: Ms.G, Mrs.Harris, Ms.Siragusa, and Ms.Missy have done a great job of coming to the classes and creating a safe space for students by establishing rules and doing group bonding exercises. There needs to be a safe space for all students on campus so it is great to see the counselors reaching out and reminding students they have a safe space. Here are some thoughts of students on campus:
“I felt that it was very informative and such an eye opener seeing how there’s bullying on the campus even when it does not seem like it” -Anonymous.
“I felt that it was a little hard to pay full attention during the first period, early in the morning but I am glad to see the awareness of bullying on campus being brought to the light” -Mia Galvan.
“Me personally, I never see bullying on campus so it doesn’t affect me” -Roman Hernandez.
“The counselor’s meeting was very helpful to understanding what is happening around on campus, I learned that there are things I can things to help around campus. ” -Sergio Aguilar Aguilar.
Overall, it is amazing to see what the school and especially the counselors are doing to bring a campus-wide awareness of what is going on campus from bullying to even sexual harassment. Of course, if you are ever being bullied or sexually harassed, please contact a trusted adult or a counselor on campus as they are always willing to help.
