Sweet Apple Elementary students sign the school’s banner promoting an anti-bullying message.

At Creek View Elementary and Sweet Apple Elementary schools in Fulton County, children recently were asked to make a commitment not to not bully by signing their names to the anti-bully banner. The banner helped observe October as National Bully Prevention Month. The school social worker, Lisa Lewy, and school counselors, Chris Emerson (CVE) and Dianne Redding (SAE), encourage students to "be a buddy, not a bully," by being good friends, showing respect to each other, and using kind words.
