[quote=Anonymous]Re bullying: I am a GDS parent of a child who was bullied in MS, and it was handled swiftly and, I believe, properly. It was not an egregious case of bullying, and since it was cyberbullying and there were witnesses, it was not a "close case." I think what impressed me the most was that the administrators did not make my child feel like the problem; in my experience at another school, because the bullied child was already engaged with the administrators, and the bully tried to avoid them, all the attention focused on how my kid could avoid being bullied in the future, and the perp really got away from even a scolding. I agree with the PPs who suggest that bullying is less of a problem at GDS than other schools, because of the culture of tolerance that seems really to become embedded at an early age. Again, I can't say anything about the handling of bullying across the board, and I can imagine it varies.[/quote]
