The Bullying Academy Teaches Kids Their Other ABCs: Anti-Bullying Curriculum

These days, it's not enough to learn reading, writing and arithmetic, as  1 out of 4 kids are bullied in person and 43%  have been bullied while online.  Now that schools are mandated to address this alarming epidemic, Tommy Walser, a 23 year-old lNew York University Law School student from Florida, is leading the charge.  He is the founder of The Bullying Academy (www.bullyingacademy.com), a free online resource quickly becoming the leading web-based, interactive program designed to help parents, students and teachers deal with the dangers associated with bullying and cyberbullying.  

The Bullying Academy provides a professionally developed curriculum and grade appropriate content that engages students through quizzes and games. It also provides information specifically developed for educators and parents.  Since it is web-based, it provides immediate access from any computer, and if students score at least 40%, they are rewarded with a diploma. Furthermore, schools are provided with data reports for each student that identifies how well he/she scored in specific categories. Data reports are also available by class, school or district and proof of compliance with statutory requirements for bullying prevention programs are also provided.

According to Tommy, “One of our main goals is to reach school superintendents, principals, teachers, and of course parents to let them know that The Bullying Academy is a wonderful teaching tool that they can get at no cost.”
