Bystander vs. Upstander
-
A Bystander is someone who sees bullying happening but chooses to do nothing to stop it. People who laugh at something a bully says or does and doesn’t try to stop it are also considered bystanders. By doing nothing, this person is contributing to the bullying situation in a negative way.
An Upstander is someone who recognizes when something is wrong and chooses to do something to help make it right. If they see or hear bullying, they decide to act. This could be anything from asking the bully to stop, reporting the event, or helping the victim after the incident. Upstanders do their best to support and protect their friends and peers.
Here at Parks, we all try to be Upstanders. If you would like to know more about how to become one, come chat with me and I can help.

Bullying
School can be hard enough as it is. My job is to make sure it is safe and supportive for all students.
Whether it is during school or on social media, bullying is bullying and it is never okay.
But for some of us, it is still hard to come forward with the fear that someone might find out and make matters worse. That is why this link was created. It gives students the opportunity to use their voices to do what is right and report any type of bullying that they might see or hear about.
So let's help each other by creating an environment that is for everyone!
