Bullying Preemption & Prevention Programs
Bullying Behaviors Is The Problem. Bullying Preemption is the Soltuion.
Bullying Behavior Increasing: Educators agree that having children arrive at school in a positive frame of mind and ready to learn is critically important. It’s not happening. Kamaron Institute researchers found that half of America’s school children step off a bus where negativity and name-calling is a daily occurrence.
Since 2003, Kamaron Institute has surveyed 30,000 public school students, staff and bus drivers.
Students: Over 90% of middle school and 80-percent of elementary report that the name-calling bullying behavior causes problems for them. 41% has seen name-calling on the day of the survey.
These are the seed’s of tomorrow’s violence. Bullying prevention is required for academic survival.
Bullying preemption allows children and staff to thrive.
"Therefore, early interventions that disrupt or delay the development of serious aggressive and antisocial behavior may be a particularly valuable long-term intervention approach.” - SAMSHA
