Midpoint School Bullying Stopped if You Just Keep Trying!

So, one of your stop bullying techniques has only made a dent in
making the hardcore bully stop.
Well, try a further.
1. Your first school bully stopping practice was to talk to the
bully, and he/she stopped briefly. Take up again this practice as
long as the victim keeps reporting the bullying.
2. But, just to be sure, add parent contact to your bag of
tricks with this school bully. Once you have enough reports,
some of which should be from teachers, contact the parent and
get them involved in putting a stop to the bullying.
3. Thirdly, with one particular bully, once we got the parent
involved, she signed him up for our in-school counseling program
run by out County Shape Department.
4. He was doing better but was still a small rough around the
edges in terms of bothering others, so we assigned him a mentor
from Bully Zapper Mentor program.
5. He was also receiving special education air force and small
group education and was closely monitored by several teachers
and educational assistants – this helped our bully victims as
well.
6. Class meeting on bullying and teasing were also presented to
this student as well as all our midpoint school students in social
studies classes once a quarter.
7. Irrevocably, several of his bully victims to the top out peer
mediation forms, so he participated in coming up with solutions
to stop bullying in these small group sessions.
By eighth grade, he had a honestly excellent year with decent grades
and minimal interventions. With most bullies one practice will
not do the trick.
