can be used at anytime by individual students and school staff without any formal
implementation. However, school-wide implementation can be critical to creating a school climate that does not tolerate bullying and
related behaviors. Utilizing anonymous reporting tools is crucial in any
serious effort to effect school change. Bullystoppers.com
does not require the purchase of any curriculums or manuals.
It involves the annual commitment of a school's staff in
making bullying, bias and hazing an unacceptable behavior which will be reported,
investigated, dealt with appropriately and
monitored at all times. Bullystoppers.com
founder Tom Letson feels strongly that all school staff members are
"experts" at bully prevention. All schools already have all
they need to begin using Bullystoppers.com so stop making excuses and implement
it today.
