Pink Shirt Day 2019 - Change the ConversationTeachers and Parents alike want to believe that teachers are doing a good job at intervening when bullying occurs, but unfortunately the students don't agree. A lot of bullying occurs outside the classroom, in places that are not easy to see. Perhaps it's time to Change the Conversation by looking at ways this can be addressed. Perhaps there is need for more supervision, or perhaps this is something that needs to be addressed as a school. Either way, this needs to be taken seriously because no one should feel scared to come to school.Stand up to Bullying by looking for ways that the social climate of the school might need to change so no one feels unsafe to come to school. And donate $2 to the Boys and Girls Club of Airdrie through their Paper Pink Shirt Campaign next time you're in the clinic.stats taken from: http://www.cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/45823.html
