Area Students Give Feedback
The Oswego County Anti-Bullying Coalition recently welcomed more than 50 students from across the county to participate in an anonymous forum at CiTi BOCES in Mexico. The discussion focused on the students’ experiences and perceptions about bullying, school safety and incident reporting. The goal is to develop a more effective, standardized reporting process that will benefit students, staff, parents and outside agencies and lead to more successful resolutions.
