Come to the Great Hall on Monday, January 28th and watch the documentary film Bully at NO COST!

Over 13 million American kids will be bullied this year, making it the most common form of violence experienced by young people in the nation. The documentary film Bully, directed by Sundance- and Emmy-award winning filmmaker Lee Hirsch, looks at how bullying has affected the lives of five kids and their families, including 12-year-old Alex of Sioux City, Iowa. The film documents how teachers and school administrators respond to aggressive behaviors that defy 'kids will be kids' cliches and captures a growing movement among parents and young people to change how bullying is handled in schools, communities and society as a whole. A discussion will follow the 94-minute film.
