Governor Deval Patrick has designated January 25th as “No Name Calling Day” in Massachusetts to increase awareness of the devastating effects of verbal bullying, to encourage students to use positive language and pledge not to use hurtful names on this day, and to promote tolerance and respect for differences.
Please help spread the word and make this day a success by wearing black on January 25th as a sign of our commitment to “Black Out Bullying.”
On this day, we will also take a stand against bullying by signing a banner that reads “I pledge to take a stand against bullying and name calling.” This will be posted somewhere around the school.
