Ryans Story

My school just hosted John Halligan who came to speak to our school and community about his son Ryan. Ryan's Story as told by his father is an emotional and powerful assembly. When students returned to class we discussed how the assembly affected us individually and as a Student body. Students were really moved by Ryans Story and we held a really interesting conversation as a class. I hope you have the opportunity to examine Ryans Story and urge you if you are an Educator, Administrator or PTO Member to host this moving story. The website has many resources for educators and parents. To find out your States laws on bullying and harassment check out this link to BullyPolice.org. Oprah also has a list of great resources and videos and you may watch segments of her program on bullying and harassment.
