Peacemakers is a group of students formed last fall by Sr. Jean Marie Ciuffini. Comprised of approximately 4 students from each grade level 3-8, these students are given the challenge of becoming pro-active representatives among their peers for the prevention of bullying. This program of peer intervention is effective and continues to evolve by providing students with specific training in the following:
-
The identification of bullying – physical, verbal, on-line, etc.
-
Strategies/procedures/processes for reporting bullying
-
Intervention strategies/conflict resolution
-
How to deal with both the bully and the victim
-
Understanding and addressing the role of the bystander
-
Mentoring new students
-
Leadership roles/responsibilities
The school counselor collaborates with teachers to empower our students to make St. Philomena School a place of welcome, safety, and growth, and success for all who come here.
