Empowering Students Against Bullying


Dariana Dogan made a difference in one of her classmate’s days by standing up to her bullies. The hero noticed some older kids bothering one of her classmates last year, so she stood up to them and told them to knock it off.

This was possible because young Dogan has received some special training on how to deal with a confrontation, such as that of a bully approaching you. She couldn’t have found a better time to put everything she learned into action.
Training is beneficial for kids to know and as of now, Dogan is among 37 students at Lincoln Elementary, who are learning to recognize and address bullying, both in and outside of school.
The school says they hope the training will empower students to address the bullying they encounter, but the training also aims to boost students’ self-esteem.
