Willets Road Celebrates Anti-Bullying Month

Willets Road Anti-Bullying Pledge
Be an Upstander!


In recognition of National Anti-Bullying month, all the students at the Willets Road School are attending a workshop presented by our guidance counselors Mr. Stander and Mrs. Stein.  The workshop offers students strategies to combat bullying in school, in our community, and in cyber-space.  The central theme of the workshop is to Be an Upstander not a bystander.  Students learned that they need to develop the courage to report bullying to a trusted adult at school and to their parents at home.  Additionally, bullying may be reported anonymously via a link on our school's website or by written form in the drop box located in the guidance wing.  I'd like to offer a special thank you to our counseling staff for their dedication to this terrific program and to Mrs. Hardy for creating the fantastic pledge banner that our students are signing.  When you visit Willets, please stop by our guidance wing to take look.
