Many of you are probably getting ready for those end of the semester seminars or presentations (which I know some of you love and some of you absolutely dread!). 

Here are a few reminders of what to do to to be the best presenter you can be:

The week of Nov 16th is Bullying Awareness Week.  Obviously this is an issue everyone needs to be aware of all year round, but this is a time to make a special effort to notice and respond to acts of bullying in and around our school community, 

Educating yourself about the facts (and the myths) is also a good way to make an effort this week. 

Some places to check out include:

BullyingAwarenessWeek.org

Bullying.org
Bullying.org's YouTube Channel
