I have been putting together a proposal that will be presented to a school board that with connect my efforts to every elementary school in our area. The goal is to teach students, teachers and parents specific anti bullying strategies so we are all speaking the same anti bullying language.
Potentially Problems
Some schools feel their efforts deal with the anti bullying issue, so they are not interested in input from outside sources. (wouldn't it be advantageous to have all input so the school efforts are reinforced and enhanced?)
Some child and youth workers feel threatened when outside sources deal with school issues they feel they should deal with (my input would add to a CYC's programming and ensure consistent strategies were implemented board-wide)
People resent individuals who have vision and are passionate about life.
People resent individuals who are successful
For the proposal to be accepted the school board needs to direct their attention toward creating a board stance on making a significant difference on the bullying issue and do away with the politics.
To motivate schools to implements the proposal we need to make the proposal public so the reluctant schools are pressured by the parents to implement the proposed anti bullying program
