RESOURCES – Focusing on Middle and High School Students
by Janet Shepard, Director
Food allergies can be difficult for students at any age, but perhaps more difficult for adolescents. The Summer issue of Adolescent Shorts is devoted to teen food allergies, new food allergy legislation which has policy and practice requirements for schools and more. You may wish to share this quarterly publication with staff and with parents through an e-mail or link on the district website.
Teaching Tolerance has a new DVD on bullying coming out in September. You can pre-order you free copy by going to the website. The title is Bullied: A Student, a School and a Case That Made History and it focuses on gay and lesbian students as the target of bullying. Teaching Tolerance recommends it for grades 6-12. You will find many other useful articles and free resources on their website. This new resource and many other resources on the site could be useful in observing National Bullying Prevention Month.
