Bully+Box

If you need help or are getting bullied,you came to the right place! As Bohannon Middle School is doing, you can also do the same at your school.This is where you have a box (or something similar)so anyone can report bullying anonymously. All you have to do is write the incident scenario on a piece of paper and put inside the designated Bully Box. The steps below will help you and your school make your own Bully Box:
 * __Bully__** __**Box**__

1. The bully box should be assigned to a responsible and trustworthy student, or teacher, to check it at least once every week. After the student or teacher has checked the bully box and if there are cards in the box, they should then be delivered to a counselor, principal, and/or a teacher, (etc.) work out where the bully box will be and who will check the Bully Box daily for incidents.

2. Then once you're done with Step 1 find a way to communicate with the whole school to make sure they know what it is, where it is, and what to do with it. Also make sure they know how to report bullying incidents. Also inform the students that the card can be dropped in the bully box anonymously if they wish. NOTE:If the incident is too violent tell an adult straight away so they can do something about it before it gets worse.

3. The adult who checks the Bully Box, will/could check the Bully Box after 3rd and 6th and/or 7th period. If your in a school that doesn't have a staff member, have the person check the Bully Box daily for reports. If they find a report they can hand it to the other adult in charge of what the matter is done to the incident and what consequences are to be chosen for the people involved. Then, the person being bullied/ the victim, should be brought up to the person in charge of the incidents, for the victim to open up and for the bully(ies) to be punished. NOTE:If you are in a school that does not have periods, have a person check the Bully Box at a certain time every day, for example, around lunch.

We hope these steps are useful and helpful for you to use them to help you and your school be a bully free zone!

We are also making a form that children/people can use to report bullies online! But not every form is the same so we decided to show you how you could make your own bully form for your school, or you can print the form we made. Our form will be on a page on a link below, click on it and you can check it out, if you like it you can print it, but if not you could make your own! You do not have to do this step, it's optional. For more information, it will be on the same link as the bully form is on. Your options for creating or printing forms are (unless you have your own way of making a form) :
 * Making it on Microsoft Office (Documents)
 * Making it on Google Documents (Forms)
 * Printing it from the link below
