Bullying builds character like nuclear waste creates superheroes. It’s a rare occurrence and often does much more
damage than endowment.
By being a bully you show everyone what
a coward you are.
Highway #5Humboldt
Every day, school-aged children expe-rience the distress of being singled out, picked on, ridiculed and intimidated by other students.
In the past, bullying was seen as a normal, if unpleasant, part of childhood. When bullied children did report, the incidents were dismissed as being part of growing up. As more and more stories reach the public, however, parents and educators are forced to acknowledge bullying as a serious issue.
“It’s always been a focus of mine as an administrator,” said the principal of Humboldt Collegiate Institute (HCI), Cory Popoff. Popoff was a superinten-dent with Horizon School District for several years prior to returning to the position as the school’s principal in Sep-tember 2012. “I have seen the effects of bullying, and as an administrator, have been able to help out in terms of remand-ing bullying behaviours when they hap-pen and they’re reported.”
But, Popoff adds, the hitch is in get-ting these instances reported, because if they’re not reported to a person in power, or if they’re reported and nothing’s done about it, things tend to escalate.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a large city of one million people or a small city the size of Humboldt, bullying exists says Popoff.
“I think it’s proportionate no matter where you go,” he said. “In my expe-rience of working in schools – many schools actually – the cases of bullying are more or less dependent on the pro-cesses that are in place for dealing with
the reported incidences.“I put a lot of effort into making sure
there’s a process in place within the school.”
This led Popoff, while still a superin-tendent, to talk about an endeavour he and school staff attempted last spring. They used a new survey for Canadian schools called “Tell Them From Me” (TTFM), which replaced the Effective Schools Student Survey in 2011. TTFM was designed to help teachers improve the learning outcomes of their students by measuring factors that are known to affect academic achievement and other outcomes.
According to its website, TTFM is more than just an online survey, it is a powerful evaluation system that pro-vides a total solution for measuring, as-sessing and reporting insights in a school, during the year as well as year-over-year.
“What that does, it provides schools with a mechanism for retrieving infor-
mation on student engagement on three levels,” Popoff said about the survey. “They are intellectual, social and aca-demic engagement.”
The section for social engagement has the bullying factor in it, he explained, and measures the level of bullying in the school.
“It actually tells you where the bully-ing is happening in the school.”
Popoff found the survey provided good feedback for the teachers in how the staff deals with things appropriately. Each of the 20 teachers at HCI, he says, are advocates for their students. In fact it was the teach-ers who were the ones to say they needed to make certain changes in the school.
“And by doing that, we send a message to the bullies,” he added. “If you’re not turning your course of actions around and we have to chose, you will not be in this
school.”And, Popoff said, the Student Rep-
resentative Council is now involved in terms of engagement for and with the students. Getting the student voice, either through a survey or by students being comfortable enough to come and talk to a teacher is primordial.
“(Bullying) is very taxing on the school and on the community,” Popoff conclud-ed. “I believe the key to this is making sure there is a system or process in place that works for everybody concerned.”
