Projects > Anti-Bullying Contest



Details:
The City of Boston recently announced the winners of the citywide Anti-Bullying Contest.

All school-age children in the city were invited to submit creative ways of addressing the bullying problem and incorporate one of two contest themes. Students in grades K-5 are reminded to "Be Kind Online," while students in grades 6-12 are urged to "Keep It Social."

With nearly 300 submissions, the citywide Anti-Bullying Contest was a wonderful success. Mayor Menino acknowledged some of the winners who were present at the BPS Tech Day held at Wentworth Institute of Technology on Saturday, June 5, 2010. All of the grand prize winners received a prize donated by Microsoft. The winning submissions can be seen online at http://www.bpscybersafety.org/contest.htm.
