-          During a study a while back hey found that, “When children bullied other children, they rarely did it alone.” (Viadero)

-          “Understanding the full measure of bullying is especially important now as districts, states, and federal education officials step up their efforts to combat the scourge in schools.” (Viadero)

-          The environment impacts how bullies succeed.

-          A strategy teacher s are using is making and encouraging a better environment.

-          Bullying has gotten so bad and law suits are being filed against school systems.

-          Law suits have forced schools to shape up the system.

-          Schools have realized that bullying has scarred kids for life.

-          Schools are now putting out the message that bullying is unacceptable.

-          It use to be that stealing and fighting was bullying and now the message that bullying is verbal most of the time is being sent by schools.

-          Many bullies continue to bully despite anti-bullying messages and more supervision is occurring in common bulling places and areas, such as a locker room.
