October is National Bullying Prevention Month

CYBERBULLYING & HARASSMENT

Cyberbullying can range from embarrassing or cruel online posts or digital pictures, to online threats, harassment, and negative comments, to stalking through emails, websites, social networks and text messages.

Every age group is vulnerable to cyberbullying, but teenagers and young adults are common victims. Cyberbullying is a growing problem in schools. Cyberbullying has become an issue because the Internet is fairly anonymous, which is appealing to bullies because their intimidation is difficult to trace. Unfortunately, rumors, threats and photos can be disseminated on the Internet very quickly.
Protect Your Children from Cyberbullying:
  • Limit where your children post personal information: Be careful who can access contact information or details about your children’s interests, habits or employment to reduce their exposure to bullies that they do not know. This may limit their risk of becoming a victim and may make it easier to identify the bully if they are victimized.
  • Avoid escalating the situation: Responding with hostility is likely to provoke a bully.  Depending on the circumstances, consider ignoring the issue. Often, bullies thrive on the reaction of their victims. If you or your child receives unwanted email messages, consider changing your email address. The problem may stop. If you continue to get messages at the new account, you may have a strong case for legal action.
  • Document cyberbullying: Keep a record of any online activity (emails, web pages, social media posts, etc.), including relevant dates and times. Keep both an electronic version and a printed copy.
  • Report cyber bullying to the appropriate authorities: If you or your child are being harassed or threatened, report the activity to the local authorities. Your local police department or FBI branch are good starting points. There is a distinction between free speech and punishable offenses. Law enforcement officials and prosecutors can help sort out legal implications. It may also be appropriate to report it to school officials who may have separate policies for dealing with activity that involves students. 
STOP. THINK. CONNECT. Tips:
  • Own your online presence:When available, set the privacy and security settings on websites to your comfort level for information sharing. It’s ok to limit how you share information.
  • Safer for me more secure for all: What you do online has the potential to affect everyone – at home, at work and around the world. Practicing good online habits benefits the global digital community.
  • Post only about others as you have them post about you.

Weekly Athletic Update: BASKETBALL TRYOUT INFO: 10/5/15 - 10/9/15

Well, as I used to say as a child, "Rain, rain, go away, come again another day." We had a lot of cancellations this week. Unfortunately we will not be able to reschedule most of these games and meets due to the proximity of the playoffs as well as logistical conflicts with other schools.
