Through funding by the Extended School Day/School Violence Prevention Grant, the Hornell City School District has been afforded district-wide implementation of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program. With over 35 years of research and development, this program has been proven to reduce bullying in schools. Furthermore, it invites the entire community to join in the program, hosting community events and functions.
In a time of endless information and social media, it's important that our students understand the effect their words and actions have on other students. The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program aims to teach our students just that.
If you have a minute, please visit the Olweus website at the link above. Not only will it provide you with important information about the program and the current state of our nation's adolescent population.
