Great news from the Supreme Court!

 The Globe and Mail reports that the Supreme Court has decided in favour of a teen bullying victim who had requested anonymity to take on her tormentors in court, if possible. You can read the entire report here.

There are many programs available, most are pretty good, but they all have some differences and not every program is right for every school. Depending on the situation at your school and the type and the frequency of bullying, some programs might be more appropriate than others.

Things are changing a bit around here...
