Did you know that 17 % of Lamoille County High School Students (19% of OSSU high schoolers) and 23% (22% OSSU) of middle schoolers report being bullied in the last 30 days? This means that in an average month about 1 in 5 high school students and 1 in 4 middle school students have been bullied. Bullying is impacting our kids, schools, and communities. It is time to come together to reduce these numbers and help our kids feel safe.
