Mr. James F. Dicke II is an outstanding man with whom I share similar challenges. Just like Mr. Dicke had been bullied severely so was I. I am a diligent student and in band, which isn’t popular. I have severe asthma making it difficult to participate in sports. These have been contributing factors to why I was bullied. I have been bullied since primary school and believed every word they had told me.

Pros And Cons To. Should Sixth Grade Be In Middle School Or Intermediate? I think that 6th graders should go to the Intermediate side because the older kids might pick on the littler kids and make them nervus on tests and might “slip” through the cracks. Sixth graders should stay in a intermediate school because their parents might move the kids, in models and programs it shows that people believe will not work, will not work and there would also be more student for the teachers to teach. Parents might take their kid out of school and move to another school.
I later on picked up English in first grade where of course like any other kid I was bullied. The stage in my life when I got bullied makes up a lot of who I am today and my identity.

Students would make fun of me but what left a laceration on my heart, mind, and soul was when my teachers would say “you will never make it” and “you are retarded”. Teachers would exclude me from activities because they thought I wasn’t smart enough. Have you ever been lost and hurt at the same time? I was hurt and lost at the same time.
Introduction Developing a plan to take schools in the right direction and improve our education system is easier said than done.

In 2012 a bully incident ended up taking the life of a fourth grader at Lakewood Elementary.
As a freshman the transition was some what difficult for me. These are somethings I think would be good to new for the middle schoolers that are tranistioning into highschool. First keep organized. I can 't stress that enough because if you don 't you will lose things really easy and become a real mess. Another thing is a personal opinion but I don 't think that going to your locker every passing period is a good idea.
I was bullied all my life actually, even by my own father! My mother always stood up for me against him and she always told me. "Yui you have to believe in yourself you can 't just give up!"

Bullying in Schools What seems fun and harmless for some students, is painful and degrading to others. Bullying has been a critical issue around schools, but before it was not as dangerous and know as it is now. These do not means bullying was not happening, it means it was not taken into consideration by parents or teachers. They thought it was just peer pressure or a kids game, and sooner or later the kids would be friends again. At one point, bullies think it’s normal to be mean and abusive to other students.

It consists of three main types of abuse which are physical, verbal and emotional. Bullying in schools is a common and worldwide spread problem that can have critical and negative implications on the general school climate as well as on the right of students to study in a safe and secure environment without fear. Many people believe that bullying is part of life, happens in all schools and so it’s not an issue to worry about and that it lets individuals know what life is all about as it toughens them but in reality bullying is a detrimental problem that affects most school going children and teenagers physically, emotionally and socially.
