Bullying

Jeffrey Johnston Stand Up for All Students Act

This legislation prohibits the bullying or harassment, including cyber-bullying, of any public K-12 student or employee. It requires the Department of Education to adopt a model policy to prohibit bullying and harassment and directs all school districts to adopt a similar policy. Schools should be a safe place for teachers and children to teach and learn.

In Memory of Ryan Patrick Halligan. This site is dedicated to the memory of Ryan and for all young people suffering in silence from the pain of bullying and having thoughts of suicide. We hope young people become less ashamed to ask for help when feeling suicidal. We hope adults gain knowledge from out tragedy. As a society, we need to find better ways to help our young people through their most difficult growing years.
