The time to Stand UP is NOW!

From November 16th -22nd, it’s Bullying Awareness Week and to celebrate we’ve got Stand UP themed shows and special events coming ‘atcha!

On Friday, November 20th at Noon ET, make sure you tune in for the premiere of “The Bullying Issue” of The Latest Buzz. Then right after the show, it’s time Stand UP! And WAVE goodbye to bullying!!! Hundreds of schools from coast to coast have signed up to be part of our cross Canada wave, including the five who won this year’s Stand UP! rallies.

The winning schools are:

• Irwin Park Elementary (Vancouver, BC)
• Mildred Hall (Yellowknife, NWT)
• Faraday School (Winnipeg, MB)
• Ecole Forest Trail Public School (Oakville, ON)
• Colby Village Elementary (Dartmouth, NS)
  

So tune in to Family on the 20th to Stand UP! with these schools and hundreds of others.

OR you can Stand UP! with us online because we’re going to be showing the Stand UP! Wave special in the video player starting at 12:15 pm ET (9:15 am PT). 

Finally, our partners at PREVNet have put together a handy Teacher’s Guide and Stand UP! Tip Sheet for parents and educators – check them out here.

Thank you for being part of Bullying Awareness Week with Family – together we can Stand UP! and put an end to bullying!
