Principal Rubino's Newsletter

 
This past week was a busy week. Along with everyday teaching and learning, students also participated in anti-bullying and anti-cyberbullying assemblies. This week during advisory, students will have an opportunity to engage in dialogue around what they learned. These are heavy and difficult topics to discuss because relational aggression in middle school is real and social and peer conflict is something students do learn to navigate, particularly during the middle school years.
 

Some key points:
 
Bullying happens when someone has more power, it’s repetitive and is done ON PURPOSE to make someone else feel bad about themselves.

Relational aggression is a social behavior with the goal of destroying friendships. Typically this is done through exclusions, rumors, gossips, etc. This is more common than bullying and can be more impactful.
