5. Bullying is a problem in our school.


Agree - 54.5%
Disagree - 54.5%


     Based on my survey results, 72.7% of people have been a victim of bullying, 81.8% of the people have witnessed bullying, and 27.3% have bullied others. Over half of the people that witnessed bullying did nothing to stop it. Therefore bullying definitely is a problem in our school. 


     "Thou shalt not be a victim, thou shalt not be a perpetrator, but, above all, thou shalt not be a bystander." -Yehuda Bauer


      This quote reminds people to not allow themselves to be a victim of bullying, not to be a perpetrator, but especially not to be a bystander and let bullying happen. It reminds us to be brave and stand up for others who are being bullied. If you were being bullied wouldn't you want someone to stand up for you too? 


      As students, if we stand all together in unity, we could make a difference in bullying in our school. If students don't take a stand together then it will just remain the same. We can stand together, and we can make a difference in bullying.

Why should we study the Holocaust?

           "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santayana, philosopher and critic.

           This means that if we fail to learn from our experiences we will make the same mistakes over and over again. We study the Holocaust because we don't want things in the past repeated and so we can learn from our mistakes. The quote is explaining that if you forget what has happened in the past, it will surely happen again. What some people don't understand is that there is something equal, if not greater, happening right now called Genocide. It's important for students to study the Holocaust so that they can learn about discrimination and there is no reason to hate others because of what they believe. Each generation needs to learn what has happened and then teach it to the next generation so it won't repeat itself.

Here are some images that come to mind:
