Sullivan Recognizes Anti-Bullying Day

Bullying has been a social issue that has been around since anyone can remember and its about time that it should come to an end. Although such a drastic change may seem impossible we're taking steps here at Sullivan Heights to minimize bullying as much as we can. Our Community Leadership  class did a number of things to spread the word about Pink Shirt Day and why all of us at Sullivan Heights should not tolerate bullying. We created hype around Pink Shirt Day and the Anti-Bullying campaign by putting up posters around the school and selling pink shirts and wristbands in the hub at lunch. In addition to that we started the new concept of Compliment Cards which are little pieces of paper with compliments written on them. This was a simple gesture to show that doing little things like that can make a big change! (They were also free) At lunch on Anti-Bullying Day all the Compliment Cards were put on the garage doors for everyone to see. This was just the start of Compliment Cards and hopefully next year we'll be able to have more students take part in making them! [Courtesy of Sullivan Heights Leadership]
