As we recognize National Bullying Prevention Month, we're reminding our Panthers that there is a difference between being rude, being mean, and bullying.
Not every hurtful action is bullying, but every situation is an opportunity to teach kindness, respect, and how our words and actions affect others.
Take a look at this helpful guide and use it to start a conversation with your child at home!
Let's be kind like Spookley! 🎃 A little kindness can make a big difference! 🧡
