Sioux City Schools Work to Stop Bullying


Sioux City schools are trying to stop bullying.

West High’s anti-bullying program is making history, by expanding prevention to staff and faculty. The training program creates advocates to give both students and teachers a place to report bullying. From the lunch room to the teacher’s lounge, the district hopes to stop the problem before it starts.

Steve Crary, Director of Human Resources for the Sioux City Community Schools told KMEG 14, “As a school district, we’re constantly working with our kids to stop bullying, and the best way to do that is to make sure our adults are modeling the way and leading the way.”

The training sessions also create coaches to continue spreading the message that bullying is not acceptable.
