Student Perspective

The student perspective is often changing by the class, period, day or even moment. It is an on-going process that is affected by the particular environment they are in. It is important for the student to know who to go to if there is a problem.

Many students feel when they have a problem with bullying, it is difficult to report it. When they tell the teacher or counselor about a bullying issue, they are sometimes seen as an outsider and there can be retaliation by the bully. If the student is a "bystander" to a bullying incident, they are often silent and do not speak up for the person being bullied or report the incident to the appropriate person.
